LAHORE: The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) on Monday filed Ramzan Sugar Mills reference, accusing Opposition Leader in National Assembly, Shehbaz Sharif and his son Hamza Shehbaz for causing loss of rupees 213 million to the national exchequer.
“As Punjab chief minister Shehbaz had misused his authority by constructing a 9 to 10 kilometers of drain to facilitate Ramzan Sugar mills under pretext of people well-being,” the reference read.
An inquiry that was carried out in the month of July last year, proved that Shehbaz abused his powers to benefit his family members, NAB said and added, “We have subsequent evidence against the duo of father and son.”
