ISLAMABAD  – The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has strongly denied baseless allegations leveled against anti-graft body by former Punjab University (PU) vice chancellor Dr Mujahid Kamran.

Responding to allegations of Dr Kamran, the NAB spokesman said Dr Mujahid was arrested by NAB on 11th October whereas Fawad Hassan Fawad and Haji Nadeem were sent to jail on judicial remand on 1st Oct and 18th June respectively.

Dr Mujahid s allegations leveled against NAB in context of Dr Mujahid s meeting with Fawad and Haji Nadeem are misleading. The allegations of installing surveillance cameras in washroom were concocted and baseless.

It is pertinent to mention here that former Punjab University (PU) vice chancellor Dr Mujahid Kamran in an interview had leveled serious allegations on the NAB.

Dr Mujahid had claimed that he was informed by Fawad Hassan Fawad that he had not become an approver in the case against Opposition Leader Shehbaz Sharif. “I inquired Fawad about him becoming an approver, to which he said that had so been the case, he would not have been in jail.

Dr Mujahid had also claimed that Haji Nadeem, who was apprehended in Paragon housing scheme case, was tortured in front of his wife and children.
