KARACHI: An anti-corruption court on Wednesday issued a bailable warrant for the arrest of Sindh Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah’s daughter, Naheed Durrani, in an import-export fraud case lodged back in 1989.

The judge of the Special Federal Anti-Corruption Court Central-II, Tasneem Sultana, issued the bailable warrant of Rs5,000 for her arrest and directed the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to present her on the next hearing.

Following the investigations, the FIA had included Durrani as a witness in the charge sheet submitted before the court. The court issued the warrant after Durrani failed to appear before the court in the case despite several notices.

Durrani has previously served as secretary of education, finance and planning and development for the Sindh government.
