RAWALPINDI: The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) Rawalpindi claimed to have seized Rs18.8 million cash from the house of a close relative of former prime minister Yousuf Raza Gillani, ARY News reported on Thursday.
Sources said a team of the anti-graft watchdog raided the residence of a government official, Saqlain Gillani, located in the NHI area of Islamabad and recovered Rs18.8 million cash.
The name of the government official, who is to be a close relative of the former premier, was placed on the Exit Control List (ECL) following the raid.
Sources said the anti-graft watchdog has launched a probe into the assets of Saqlain Gillani following the recovery of the amount and summoned details of all his bank accounts.
Earlier this year, on Dec 20, the NAB team raided a residence of a senior Sindh Building Control Authority (SBCA) officer and seized valuables worth around Rs1 billion.
According to NAB, the team carried out a search at the house of Adil Omer in Federal B. Area with a search warrant from judicial magistrate and found cash and other valuable that were apparently obtained by the officer without known sources of income.
