When the NAB investigation team questioned the accused about the transfer of the money, the accused took the position that the money transferred to the personal account of Senior Clerk Local Government Sherani Ashraf Khan District was for development projects, while the amount for government schemes was government money. It can be transferred to the account itself. Later on the spot check of the schemes it became clear that all the schemes were completed before June and the dubious amount was transferred after the completion of these schemes.
The NAB has filed a reference in the Accountability Court in Quetta under the NAO and the Anti-Money Laundering Act in the wake of irrefutable evidence of money laundering allegations against the accused. To improve the rating, NAB is also investigating cases of corruption through the banking channel in which corrupt elements are being brought to justice and resolved successfully.
Director General NAB Balochistan Farmanullah Khan has said that by exposing the efforts of corrupt elements to launder black money, the national exchequer will be saved from irreparable loss in any case, hopefully headed by Chairman NAB Justice Javed Iqbal. Efforts by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) to curb the illegal use of banking channels, including money laundering, will significantly improve Pakistan's FATF rating.
