Al-Qadir Trust case: PTI chief, wife placed on ECL

Pakistan

NAB will be writing a letter to the ministry of interior

ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - In a significant development, the names of PTI chief and his wife, Bushra Bibi, have been added to the Exit Control List (ECL) on Monday in connection with the Al-Qadir University Trust corruption scandal.

The recommendation to include the PTI chief and Bushra Bibi's names on the ECL was put forward by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) Rawalpindi and subsequently approved by the federal cabinet through a circular summary. To formalize their inclusion on the ECL, NAB will be writing a letter to the ministry of interior.

The decision to add the PTI chief and his wife to the ECL comes after allegations of their involvement in a corruption scandal amounting to 190 million pounds.

This move follows a recent event when the government took action by placing the names of several PTI leaders, including the embattled party's chief, on the no-fly list due to alleged involvement in 9/5 mayhem.
