ISLAMABAD: The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has filed a plea against the Lahore High Court’s (LHC) decision to grant bail to Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) vice president Maryam Nawaz.
The NAB filed a plea in the Supreme Court against the LHC’s decision to grant Maryam Nawaz bail in the Chaudhry Sugar Mills case.
In its petition, the bureau argued the LHC had not considered the case records in the correct manner. It added that due to the LHC’s decision, the prosecution’s case had also been affected.

She was arrested along with her cousin Yousuf Abbas in the same case by the Nab on 8th August 2019.
