LAHORE: Special Judge (Banking Offences) Abdul Rasheed on Monday issued a notice to the FIA Punjab for April 25 on a bail petition moved by PML-Q leader Moonis Elahi allegedly involved in the National Insurance Corporation Limited (NICL) land scam.

He said Moonis had nothing to do with the scam as all the cases were lodged against the family of Mohsin Habib Warriach. He pointed out that looted money had already been returned to the NICL and requested the court to release Moonis on bail.
At this, the court summoned the record of the case from the FIA Punjab on April 25. Previously, the FIA had submitted a challan against Moonis, declaring him guilty of opening bogus accounts for corruption. The charges are likely to be framed against the accused on April 19 . The News
