ISLAMABAD: The accountability has extended judicial remand of Pakistan Peoples Party leader Faryal Talpur for 21 days in fake bank accounts case.
Faryal Talpur is currently in Adiala prison on judicial remand in the same case. Meanwhile, her brother, Asif Ali Zardari, submitted a plea in which he sought a day release from the court appearance owing to his health issues.
Last week, Zardari was granted bail by the Islamabad High Court (IHC) on medical grounds and was ordered to submit Rs10 million surety bonds in the court.
Both Zardari and Talpur are being held at Adiala Jail after they were arrested by the accountability watchdog earlier this year on charges of laundering billions of rupees through fictitious accounts.
