The Supreme Court on Saturday has directed the Joint Investigation Team (JIT) in the money laundering case to submit its report within two weeks about fake bank accounts.
A three-member bench headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Saqib Nisar heard the case in Islamabad.
During the hearing, CJP observed that the securities loaned out to different banks were no longer present in the banks. He also hinted that Nimr Majeed, the son of Omni Group chairman Anwar Majeed, be arrested and included in the investigation.
Nimr Majeed was arrested by the FIA last month but was released a day later on the court’s orders. The apex court summoned Abdul Ghani Majeed of Omni group to appear in person at the next hearing.
It also directed high officials of the National, Sindh and Summit Banks to appear in the next hearing to be held on 17th of this month.
