A deputy prosecutor general of the National Accountability Bureau (NAB), Sardar Muzaffar Khan, on Friday lodged a complaint with police after he was allegedly targeted by unidentified persons in a gun attack.
According to a first information report (FIR) registered in Islamabad's I-9 police station, the NAB official had come out of his house on Thursday night to see off his brother when he heard gunshots. Khan's sons, aged seven and five, had been accompanying him as well.
Khan said he did not have personal enmities, but added that he was working on several high-profile cases registered at NAB.
He said he fears for his and his family's safety.
He added that he had informed the director general of NAB Rawalpindi about the incident.

And, even if they do the fair thing; they'll still be in danger from the unknown forces.

Very simple to understand without using mind. Why and NAB officer is attacked when in the city there must be 4000 officers and not just this officer but none is attacked but him only? Secondly his nature of official duty is investigate which natural annoys others so he becomes a target. Next question as to who could be interested to attack NAB Officer is to be answered by you and not me. So now I testing you to be honest. Be courageous and come back personifying as to who is behind the attack. Iqbal Hadi Zaidi

The name of NAB needs to be changed to PAB (Political Accountability Bureau).

@Rashid, NAB has no responsibility to expose any one but they have the responsibility to present evidences in the court and fight the case well but in reality NAB is failing in the courts and innocent people are suffering.

Very simple to understand even without using mind. Why and NAB officer is only attacked when in the city there must be 4000 officers and not just this officer but yet none is attacked but him only? Secondly his nature of official duty is to investigate which natural annoys others so he becomes a target. Next question as to who could be interested to attack NAB Officer is to be answered by you and not me. So now I am testing your acumen if not annoying to be honest to be honest to you.
