KARACHI: The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has started probing another case of corruption against former Assistant Inspector General of Police (finance) Syed Fida Hussain Shah. The accused is alleged of misappropriating Rs70 million from police feeding funds.

NAB has claimed to have in possession irrefutable proofs against Shah for misappropriating funds, allocated for the food and other such necessities for personnel deputed on special duties. According to reports, the funds were transferred to a separate account and later withdrawn through a head constable.

The suspect is already detained in a corruption reference in petrol bills case.

The bail petition for Shah had been recently turned down by the Supreme Court in a case which alleged him of corruption worth Rs50 million. The NAB had filed a reference against Shah for allegedly coming up with fake bills to reimburse funds worth Rs50 million as fuel allowance for vehicles of the Sindh Police.
