The Director-General of the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) Shehzad Saleem on Friday sent a notice to Tayyaba Gul, the woman who accused the NAB chief of sexual harassment before the Parliament’s Public Accounts Committee (PAC), seeking Rs100 million in damages.
Earlier, Tayyaba Gul, whose controversial video with the ex-NAB chairman had surfaced in 2019, had alleged that she was sexually harassed while visiting the watchdog’s office.
“When I was presented before DG NAB Shehzad, my clothes were torn off upon his directions and my body had to sustain bruises because of the search.” She claimed
DG NAB Shehzad Saleem in a statement said that his audio was “misused” as his call was stealthily recorded, adding that whatever action was taken against Gul was “in accordance with the law”.
He added that NAB Lahore had received complaints against Gul. “She was the plaintiff in one case and the accused in another case,” he said.
In this regard, NAB spokesperson Nawazish Ali also said that he “never met Gul” and that she tried to “misrepresent” him.
