ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court (SC) warned the Chairman of National Accountability Bureau (NAB) that he may be put behind bars if the judicial orders delivered on National Reconciliation Ordinance (NRO), were not implemented, Geo News reported Monday.

Justice Khalilur Rehman Ramday said in his remarks that it is unthinkable why the court order on the NRO is being criticized; though, the Parliament threw it away terming it ‘a stinking mouse’.

Justice Ramday wondered what wrong was done in delivering the NRO verdict that a volley of invectives is being showered.

A seven-member of the SC headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Iftikhar Muhammed Chaudhry heard the corruption case against Riaz Sheikh, FIA’s additional DG Finance.

Court voiced annoyance at Acting Chairman of NAB for not appearing before the court. When he came to the court, the SC ordered him to present by this afternoon the report on the implementation of the NRO verdict

The CJ addressed the NAB acting chief, ‘If you fear, then go home. You are doing your job and want to get the SC slurred.’

The CJ Chaudhry expressed surprise saying how Riaz continued in a high office despite being accused of massive corruption.

The court also called Home Secretary.

The court also scolded the Rasheed A Rizvi for pleading the case for Ahmed Riaz Sheikh.

The CJ said the court ordered to restore the accountability cases to October 5, 2007 position; however, the matter is being slighted with letters being addressed to the Attorney General and sometimes to the Law Secretary.
