The same warrant was also issued for the arrest of the son of former Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani and Member of National Assembly (MNA), Ali Musa Gilani. The court has ordered for the accused to be arrested and presented in court within a week, reports The Express Tribune. During the hearing, ANF Commander Brigadier Faheem and Investigating Officer (IO) Abid Zulfiqar presented a report stating they had evidence and witness testimonies proving the direct involvement of former health minister Shahabuddin and Member of National Assembly (MNA) Ali Musa Gilani in providing illegal quota of banned chemicals to a laboratory in Multan. Forwarding a request to be an immunity-granted witness, former director general (DG) Health Dr Rasheed Jumma verified in his statement to the investigation team that it was
Shahabuddin who approved the 2,500 kg ephedrine quota allotment to Berlex Lab
International and 6,500 kg to Danas Pharma. He added that Ali Musa Gilani pressed
for the allotment of the quota as well. The magistrate approved the request of
Brigadier Faheem and IO Abid and issued a non-bailable arrest warrant against
the two accused.
