ISLAMABAD (HRNW) – The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has summoned Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari to appear before its Rawalpindi investigation team on February 13 in the JV Opal-255 case.

The PPP chairman has been accused of withdrawing Rs1.22 billion from a fake account for his private company.

Mr Bilawal has claimed that he was young at that time, but contrary to his statement, the audit report contains his signature. The NAB has obtained an audit report and documents containing his signature.

For the same case, NAB Chairman retired justice Javed Iqbal had approved converting that inquiry into an investigation, and the bureau summoned Mr Bilawal for the fourth time. However, Mr Bilawal has appeared before the investigation team only once.
