Islamabad, Pakistan – Pakistan’s Supreme Court on Friday reinstated amendments made to the country’s accountability law two years ago, overturning a previous decision by a three-member bench.
In September last year, the top court under then-Chief Justice Umar Ata Bandial had, in a 2-1 verdict, struck down changes to the National Accountability Ordinance (NAO), as had been demanded by former Prime Minister Imran Khan.
