An accountability court on Tuesday adjourned the hearing of a corruption reference related to development projects in Gujrat against former chief minister Chaudhry Parvez Elahi and others till November 20.
Accountability Court Judge Zubair Shahzad Kiyani conducted the proceedings, during which co-accused Naeem Iqbal, Asif and Asghar were produced after being brought from jail.
The defence counsel sought time to present arguments on an application challenging the court's jurisdiction to hear the matter, adding that the counsel for accused Muhammad Khan Bhatti was not available.
National Accountability Bureau (NAB) prosecutor Waris Ali Janjua argued that the accused were trying to delay the trial.
