LAHORE: The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has summoned the sons of PML-N President Shahbaz Sharif in inquiry into assets beyond means, according to a source.

Hamza and Salman have been summoned for Nov 2, a source told Dawn.

Hamza is also facing investigation in the Punjab Saaf Pani Company for allegedly presiding over meetings of the board of directors despite the fact he was not even its member.

Earlier, Salman Shahbaz had appeared before NAB Lahore regarding provision of the record of his family’s property.

In the previous notice to Salman, NAB said: “During interrogation, Shahbaz Sharif has stated that all of his matters relevant to assets, income and expenditures are being looked after by you and you are acquainted with and in possession of such information/documents. You are requested to appear before a combined investigation team along with documents of all assets and properties”.

The bureau on Oct 5 had arrested Shahbaz Sharif in the alleged Rs14bn Ashiana-i-Iqbal Housing project scam. He has been in NAB custody on a physical remand till Oct 30.
