PML-N leader Shahid Khaqan Abbasi talking to media after hearing suggested to shut anti graft NAB to run the country in a smooth way.

SC has stated that law taken as a joke, he added.

Meanwhile, Khawaja Saad Rafique said that bails in the corruption references prove that political revenge taken from the PML-N leaders .

Pakistan Muslim League Leader Ahsan Iqbal criticized NAB in his tweet;

He wrote:

Grant of bail to Kh Saad Rafique & Kh Salman Rafiq by Supreme Court is yet another proof of #NAB serving as a tool of victimisation against #PMLN at the behest of IK. SC called case mockery of law expressing serious concerns on either motive or capacity of NAB.
