The bench was being headed by Justice Shehbaz Rizvi.
Petitioner Ranjha, in his petition he filed in LHC, contended that the NAB used to issue him notices without elaborating its complaint as well as sharing other relevant documents.
He implored the court that his efforts bore no fruit despite he had submitted several applications with the NAB requesting them to intimate him about allegations levelled against him.
NAB is just issuing him notices for appearing before the office rather than providing him material about those allegations which the NAB had levelled on him.
He told the court that NAB has a complete record of all assets which he had declared but even then he was at a loss to understand why the anti-graft watchdog was summoning him.
He requested the court that the NAB be directed to restrain from initiating any ‘illegal proceedings’ against him. The bench, accepting plea issued notice to the NAB and sought reply by the aforementioned date.
