Accountability Court on Friday extended Balochistan’s former finance adviser Khalid Langove’s remand by 14 more days in mega corruption case.
The ex-finance adviser was produced before Judge Abdul Majeed Nasir by National Accountability Bureau Balochistan.

Langove stated that he was satisfied with investigation officer’s way of interrogation and NAB’s proceedings.
Khaliqabad Administrator of Municipal Committee, Saleem Shah was also produced before the court in mega corruption case and remanded in NAB’s custody until July 14.

Arrests in different cities were made including that of a government contractor named Sohail Shah in Karachi’s Defense Housing Authority.
