Islamabad: On Monday, President Arif Alvi rejected a bill amending the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) Ordinance due to the “flaws in its implementation”. “Unfortunately, there were flaws in NAB’s implementation. It was misused for political exigencies by those in power [and] by vested interests,” the president wrote on Twitter. “Instead of improving the law to avoid miscarriage, to close loopholes [and] make it stronger, we are weakening it beyond recognition,” the statement read.
