According to media reports, the Director General of the anti-graft watchdog briefed the court with initial reports about different cases including working of public-sector companies in the province.
The DG NAB ensured the top court that the officers on their visit to the NAB office were served tea, coffee and mineral water at the air-conditioned reception room.
