Shah said these two persons were best choice for top post of accountability body and nobody could object over these two names. He said we have talked to PTI and MQM to seek their opinion on the names but no response was given from their side.

 

The Supreme Court had earlier expressed displeasure over the non-appointment of NAB chief despite court orders.

 

Admiral Bokhari was removed on May 29 and his appointment was declared illegal by the apex court.
