LAHORE: The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Wednesday has granted bail to Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader and opposition leader in the Punjab Assembly Hamza Shahbaz in the assests beyond the mean case.

A division bench of the Lahore High Court comprising Justice Sardar Muhammad Sarfraz Dogar and Justice Asjad Javed Ghural heard the bail application of Hamza Shahbaz.

Arguing against the bail plea of ​​Hamza Shahbaz, the NAB prosecutor said that Hamza Shahbaz had set up an integrated network for money laundering.

The court asked if you had the details of the people whose names were used.

The NAB prosecutor said that those in whose name fake TTs were affixed should be held accountable in court.

Hamza Shahbaz's lawyer said that the court has to look into the delay, reference was filed 14 months after the arrest of Hamza Shahbaz, indictment was filed 17 months later, statements of 8 witnesses have been recorded If Shahbaz is acquitted, will the NAB give an account of it? The NAB prosecutor said that the investigation takes time.

After hearing the arguments of both parties, the court granted bail to Hamza Shahbaz and ordered him to submit two bonds of Rs. 1 million each.
