In a bid to curtail the powers of the National Accountability Bureau (NAB), the National Assembly on Thursday approved amendments to the National Accountability Ordinance 1999, ARY NEWS reported.

The bill was tabled by Law Minister Azam Nazeer Tarar who said that multiple amendments were made in the accountability Ordinance to clip the powers exercised by the accountability bureau.

Sharing details of the key amendments, he said that after fresh amendments, no arrests could be made before completion of the investigation process, and the suspect will have the right to obtain bail while 90-day remand is also abolished.

“90-day remand is for terrorists and we have now reduced the duration of remand to 14 days,” he said and added that no defamation campaign could be carried out unless the suspect is convicted in the case. The case could not be used for political purposes in the assets beyond means case, he said.

Azam Nazeer Tarar further said that the NAB will now be bound to initiate an inquiry within six months of the complaint, contrary to previous procedure when there was no time limit.

I am pretty sure now you will defend this as well. NAB was taking these looters to the cleaners which is why they are pissed.

What did the previous Musharaf Draconian law achieve, other than political victimisation. Should find themselves lucky not to become the same victim, even if they are very eager to settle the score with interest.

3-4 weeks away from PDF and what a fiasco unfolding in Pakistan. Who are they kidding with these amendments. Surely they can be challenged in court - when the largest party in Pakistan Parliament is not present in the house, how can the house justify proper scrutiny of these amendments. As such any amendments they make should be null and void.

Agree whom to blame.

Unless they violate any basic human rights.

It will now be presented to the Senate, where PTI is present.
Sharif and Zardari to blame always and forever, the damage is unquantifiable.
What about the shelling yesterday did that not violate basic human rights. Thats a tough one for PMLN supporter to bring up I am sure.
A senate where PTI is in minority - convenient isn't it.

For ousting an incompetent Govt through a constitutional process of VONC.

The SC ordered the rally at H9 park not at D chowk, which IK was so vocally advocating. I am amazed why no contempt of court.

The Senate chairman is still a PTI ally, can block the law if any issues.
