LAHORE – Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Khawaja Saad Rafique and his brother Salman Rafique will appear before the National Accountability Bureau Lahore office today pertaining to the Paragon Housing Scheme case.
The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) had launched a probe against Rafique and his brother in the Paragon Housing Society scam which is still ongoing.
A day earlier, the duo secured interim bail from the Lahore High Court, pleading that they were cooperating with NAB, however, showing apprehensions that they could be arrested anytime.
The relief came days after the Islamabad High Court refused to grant a protective bail to the two.
The LHC has now prohibited the anti-graft body from arresting the both of them till October 24. The court also summoned details pertaining to the corruption allegations against the brothers.

Rafique recently won the by-elections for NA-131 seat of Lahore after defeating PTI’s Humayun Akhtar.
Commenting on the proceedings against Rafique and his brother, PML-N supremo and former premier Nawaz Sharif said that the former will be arrested soon.
“The entire world knows what kind of cases have been created against Shehbaz Sharif and Saad Rafique,” Nawaz said in an interaction with newsmen on Monday.
