PML-N’s Shahid Khaqan Abbasi terms new NAB ordinance ‘NRO for govt’

[FOOLS_NIGHTMARE]

• NAB ineffective against elements involved in sugar, wheat and medicine scams, says Shahid Khaqan Abbasi.
• PML-N leader accuses NAB chairman of serving the prime minister's interests.
• The anti-graft watchdog is unable to ask questions from Pakistanis named in the Pandora Papers, he adds.

Terming the presidential ordinance that allows extending the term of the incumbent National Accountability Bureau (NAB) Chairman retired Justice Javed Iqbal an "NRO for the government", former prime minister and PML-N senior leader Shahid Khaqan Abbasi onThursday said the motive behind the move was to conceal the alleged corruption of the rulers.

Addressing a press conference, Abbasi accused the chairman of the anti-graft watchdog of serving the prime minister's interests. “No official notification has been issued so far for the ordinance,” he said, adding that he had only seen the president tweet about it.

Criticising the federal government, the PML-N leader said NAB takes no action against the elements involved in sugar, wheat and medicine scams, adding that it also does not ask questions from tax invaders.
The anti-graft watchdog was unable to ask question Pakistanis named in the Pandora Papers, he added.
“The NAB chairman must pack up and leave if the prime minister does not hold consultations with the Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly over the matter,” Abbasi said.
PML-N to protest against NAB ordinance
The PML-N has decided to give the government a tough time over the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) ordinance that can allow the chairman to enjoy another four-year term.
However, the party still stands divided over how it will challenge the government.
Speaking during Geo News programme "Aaj Shahzeb Khanzada Ke Saath", PML-N leader Rana Sanaullah said the party has decided to protest against the NAB ordinance but it is divided on how to challenge it.
President Arif Alvi on Wednesday promulgated the National Accountability (Amendment) Ordinance, 2021, under which NAB Chairman retired Justice Javed Iqbal will continue to serve the post until a new chairman is appointed.

The new NAB ordinance isn’t what absolved the people named in the Pandora Papers, it’s the multitudes of amnesty schemes. A lot of people who might have ended up in jail or disqualified, had the proceedings before 2018 been emulated today, have already been washed with the schemes.

IMO neither the names listed in Panama, nor Pandora are proof of guilt. But there’s gross hypocrisy if you pursue one and absolve the other.

This NAB ordinance is another matter entirely, the whole bail change is draconian and really absurd. As for the puppet whose extension has been so hard won, there’s really no major material change. The opposition can obstruct, but they are too toothless to break the status quo, which the government will happily continue via this ordinance.

NAB should have a look at this!

Shahid Khaqan Abbasi is a very simple and humble man.

Why? Are you afraid the accused won't easily get bail now without paying up entire corruption amount upfront?

No, it basically means that any accused, innocent or guilty can be kept in prison until they are heard at a court. Essentially it's a way of removing the concept of bail entirely whenever the relevant authority wants to exercise draconian power. Corruption needs to be proven at a court, an accusation is not enough. If I arrest you accusing you of stealing USD10m, and instead of a judge setting the bail, I set it at whatever amount I accuse you of, it means you are stuck there even if you are innocent, even before a single charge against you is heard at a court, let alone proven. This on the surface of it sounds to me to be extremely draconian, an affront to due process and also the presumption of innocence (habeas corpus).

So you suggest corruption must be proven in Supreme Court? As NAB courts have already convicted Nawaz Sharif Bhagora, Maryam Nawaz Drama Queen and Captain Safdar Mulazim 3 years ago, and yet all are roaming freely awaiting appeals in IHC, whose verdict will be challenged in Supreme Court anyway by either party.
