LAHORE: An accountability court on Tuesday indicted Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Parvez Elahi in a case related to alleged corruption in development projects. Accountability Court judge Zubair Shahzad Kayani framed the charges against the former Punjab chief minister, who denied the allegations. The judge summoned the witnesses to record their statements at the next hearing. Mr. Elahi signed the indictment. In an earlier hearing, the judge granted the PTI leader’s request for a one-day exemption from attending the court. The court has already framed charges against Muhammad Khan Bhatti, Khalid Mahmood Chhatt, Asif Mahmood, Naeem Iqbal, Muhammad Asghar and Asad Ali in the case.
