Lahore: Qasim Zia, former president PPP Punjab has filed bail plea in Lahore High Court (LHC), in corruption case.
Qasim Zia was arrested in a corruption case. Barrister Ali Zafar counsel for Qasim Zia filed the bail application, stating that National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has named his client in false case. He said that NAB was unable to collect evidence against Qasim Zia, despite getting a 16-day physical remand.

After listening to the security personnel, court rebuffed to extend former Punjab president’s physical remand.
