Sindh High Court (SHC) on Wednesday issued notices to both parties for December 17 in Dr Asim Hussain’s bail plea case.

The hearing was held in SHC during which the Dr Asim’s lawyer told the court that National Accountability Bureau (NAB) officials are investigating the whole case. He said that Dr Asim is under the custody of police and it is feared that NAB may arrest him.

Subsequently, the court adjourned the hearing till December 17 by issuing notices to the both parties.

Earlier, SHC on Tuesday once again issued notices to Director General (DG) Rangers, Inspector General Sindh (IG) and National Accountability Bureau (NAB) on the plea filed by Dr Asim’s mother.

Asim is accused of providing shelter and treatment to target killers and terrorists in Ziauddin Hospital that he owns. After the 90-day remand expired, a case was launched against him in North Nazimabad Police Station. The case involves terrorism sections.

Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) and Sindh ruling party, Pakistan People’s Party’s (PPP) members have also been nominated in the case.
