Hamza Shehbaz stopped at airport

The Federal Investigation Agency has barred Leader of the Opposition in the Punjab Assembly, Hamza Shehbaz, from flying to London. The son of Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N) president Shehbaz Sharif said: “When I reached the immigration counter, I was told that my name is on the black list.” “I am not wanted in the ongoing National Accountability Bureau (NAB) inquiry,” he added. Shehbaz was scheduled to depart for London to meet his brother. Last month, the NAB had recommended to the ministry of interior to place Hamza Shehbaz and his brother, Salman, on the Exit Control List (ECL). In a letter to the ministry, the NAB stated that the brothers are under investigation.
