An accountability court Monday exempted Finance Minister Senator Ishaq Dar from personal appearance in an assets beyond means case. Dar, who was personally present in the court of Judge Mohammad Basheer, submitted three pleas, including the one pertaining to exemption, through his legal counsel. The other two included the detachment of assets and acquittal. The court, however, accepted the exemption plea and asked the lawyer to present his arguments for the others during the next hearing. The judge then adjourned the hearing till November 16. In December 2017, the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) filed a case against the minister for finance and revenue, accusing him of possessing assets disproportionate to his declared sources of income. A reference against the PML-N leader was filed by NAB in light of the Supreme Court’s July 28, 2017, verdict in the Panama Papers case. Dar had also been declared a proclaimed offender by the accountability court due to his continuous absence from the proceedings – but in October, the court suspended his arrest warrants after he appeared before it.
