Former IGP Benazir Ahmed’s wife Zeeshan Mirza and their two daughters did not appear before the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) for questioning on Sunday as they have sought 15 days to appear before the ACC. ACC lawyer Khurshid Alam Khan confirmed the media people.

On May 28, the anti-graft body issued a notice to Benazir and his family members for interrogation over the allegations that he amassed illegal wealth through corruption.

According to the notice, Benazir was summoned to appear before ACC on last Thursday for questioning regarding the allegations of amassing wealth beyond their known sources of income.

But he did not appear before it on that day as he has sought 15 days’ time to appear before the ACC.

Later, the ACC has rescheduled the date to interrogate Benazir to June 23 regarding the allegations of amassing wealth beyond known sources of income. - Special Correspondent
