Khursheed Shah undergoes medical check-up, admitted to Poly Clinic
ISLAMABAD (92 News) – PPP leader Syed Khursheed Shah, who is in the custody of the National Accountability Bureau (NAB), underwent a medical check-up at Poly Clinic on Thursday.
He was admitted to hospital after he complained of pain in stomach and difficulty in breathing. However, his ECG and blood pressure were declared normal.
The medical board conducted his check-up in Poly Clinic’s Cardiac Ward.
The doctors, however, did not allow PPP leader to met Syed Khurshid Shah.
Earlier on Thursday, an accountability court (AC) in Islamabad approved two-day transit remand of Pakistan Peoples’ Party (PPP) senior leader Khursheed Shah in assets beyond known sources of income case.
Khursheed Shah will be shifted to Sukkur for investigation. The NAB prosecutor had requested for three-day transit remand. “How much time will it take to fly to Sukkur,” asked Judge Bashir.
To this, the NAB investigating officer said they will take the PPP stalwart on the first available flight to Sukkur. The court then granted two-day transit remand of the PPP leader to NAB.
A day earlier, the Rawalpindi and Sukkur NAB jointly arrested PPP leader from his residence at Bani Gala, Islamabad.
Khursheed Shah faces the charge of possessing assets beyond known sources of income and having ‘benami’ properties. The NAB had summoned Khurshid Shah on Wednesday, but he excused from appearing before the NAB. After his arrest, the PML-N and the PPP boycotted the National Parliamentary Conference.
