LAHORE: The National Accountability Bureau is considering making a request to the interior ministry to initiate the process of red warrants for former finance minister Ishaq Dar and two sons of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif who are facing corruption references.

“NAB may ask the interior ministry to contact Interpol for issuance of red warrants for Mr Dar and Hasan and Hussain Nawaz so that they could be brought back to face the corruption references in the accountability court,” a source in NAB told Dawn on Monday.

Hasan and Hussain have already been declared proclaimed offenders in the corruption case. Dar is staying in London on medical grounds.
