NAB wings directed to expedite inquiries
ISLAMABAD: The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has directed all of its regional entities to wind up the inquiries and investigations that are nearing completion within the shortest possible time and pursue the cases in the courts pro-actively, as slow prosecution would also delay justice.
In this regard, on the directions of NAB Chairman Qamar Zaman Chaudhry, an Action Plan has also been prepared, which calls on the relevant wings and regions to conclude the inquiries and investigations where 80% or more work has been done, within a month. Those cases for which deadlines have been fixed should be completed without any further delay to reduce pendency. A circular communicated to the regional NAB offices for immediate enforcement, has raised concern that despite spending taxpayers’ money on NAB, it has been unable to decrease pendency rate, which shows low productivity of the organisation.Courtesy www.dailytimes.com.pk
