Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Hamza Shahbaz has been issued release orders by the Accountability Court (AC).

The AC has on Thursday issued released orders for Hamza Shahbaz after submission of surety bond worth Rs10 million against his bail.

The surety bond was submitted in the court of AC Judge Amjad Nazir Chaudhri by advocate Amjad Pervez.

The court granted bail to the PML-N leader in the Ramzan Sugar Mills case in 2020.

However, the court after verification of the surety bond issued release orders for Hamza Shahbaz.
