An accountability court Friday extended the remand of former Balochistan Finance Adviser Mir Khalid Lango by 14 days.
Suspect Khalid Lango was brought before the court for a hearing which was presided by Judge Abdul Majeed Nasir pertaining to the Mushtaq Raisani corruption case
Khalid Lango’s remand was extended for another 14 days until July 14 at the request of National Accountability Bureau (NAB). His attorney requested the court that nothing had been proven so far against his client hence the need for an additional remand did not exist.
However, the investigating officer of NAB informed the court that seven new accounts have surfaced in relation to the case and further investigation is being conducted.
The court asked Khalid Lango whether he was encountering any difficulty or not to which he replied that he was satisfied with NAB’s attitude. However, he requested the court not to change the investigating officer since some unpleasantness had occurred during the course of interrogation with other investigating officers.
