ISLAMABAD - An Accountability Court (AC) on Wednesday summoned former President Asif Ali Zardari and other accused on August 4, to indict him in Thatha Water Supply reference connected with the fake account scam. AC-II Judge Azam Khan conducted hearing on the Thatha Water Supply reference filed by NAB. At the outset of hearing, Zardari’s lawyer Farouk H. Naek pleaded that his client could not appear before the court in person due to outbreak of coronavirus in the country. At this, the court ordered National Accountability Bureau (NAB) to make video link arrangement for attendance of the accused so that their indictment process could be completed. However, the court declared the co-accused Ishfaq Lighari as a proclaimed offender due to his continuous disappearance and ordered other fourteen accused to appear on next hearing for indictment.
