National Accountability Bureau (NAB) Sindh Director General Wajid Ali Durrani has said that the NAB is dealing with 250 corruption cases while the Bureau has so far ensured recovery of Rs 1.5 billion.

The DG shared this information with the newsmen on the occasion of a walk that was organised in negation to corruption.

All efforts were being made to achieve the target of zero corruption in the country for which the NAB was applying all available resources which would bear fruits one day, he hoped.

NAB Additional Director Abdul Hafeez Siddiqui, Director Bashir Ahmed, Nisar Memon and other officials and students from different colleges and universities attended the walk.

Durrani said a week against corruption was being commemorated under the aegis of United Nations and the walk was also a part of that theme.

He said the Sindh provincial government was striving for the eradication of corruption and the NAB was flanking the government in its struggle for making the country free from corruption. However, it should not only be the government or the NAB alone but the whole society should incorporate its share with the two institutions so that corruption could be fully eliminated from the society.

Later, a ceremony was followed by the walk wherein NAB DG Durrani distributed shields among the representatives of various institutions.
