An accountability court declared Moonis Elahi, the son of former Punjab chief minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) President Parvez Elahi, a proclaimed offender in a corruption case, issuing orders to seize his properties and bank accounts.
The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) had initiated an inquiry against former chief minister Elahi, his son Moonis, and many others in June 2023 over allegations of misuse of authority and receiving illegal gratification and kickbacks.
It was alleged that the accused approved schemes under supplementary grants and awarded contracts to their favourite contractors after receiving bribe or kickbacks in sheer violation of rules.
