National Accountability Bureau (NAB) submitted references of cases regarding the multi-million scam involving the Oil and Gas Regulator Authority (OGRA) and the appointment of its former chairman Tauqir Sadiq in the accountability court.
NAB submitted the references after removing the objections raised by the Registrar Office during the earlier hearing.
During the hearing of case of multi-million corruption in OGRA, the court issued summons to former prime ministers Yousuf Raza Gilani and Raja Pervez Ashraf and ordered them to appear on Feb 18.
On Saturday, former OGRA chairman Tauqir Sadiq appeared before the court.

Judge Mohammad Bashir had ordered NAB officials to file OGRA corruption case reference by February 4 and directed them to serve Sadiq a copy of the same.
