In the written reply, Imran stated: “It is clear that NAB that the basis of these allegations is the approval of the confidential agreement by the federal cabinet in December 2019. He added the amount of 190 million pounds is in the Supreme Court account and no personal benefit was taken.

“The allegations of corruption by NAB are fabricated, baseless and malicious. Neither I nor my wife got any financial benefit from any land nor other sources as trustees.
“The cabinet unanimously approved the confidentiality agreement in accordance with the law. I have informed about my objections in the previous reply. All the documents available have been submitted to NAB
