NAB issues offer letters to 13 assistant directors

The Islamabad High Court (IHC) disposed of a hiring case on Monday after the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) informed the court that it had already issued offer letters to the aggrieved individuals. A petitioner had approached the capital’s high court after NAB declined to hire him and 12 other successful candidates as grade-17 assistant directors despite completing all formalities. NAB had also submitted a summary to the country's president, requesting the annulment of the new appointments. However, the president later declined to endorse the summary. During the hearing of the case presided over by Justice Babar Sattar of the IHC, NAB's Additional Prosecutor General Jehanzeb Bharwana submitted a response to the court.
