ACC Director General (admin) Col Hanif Iqbal disclosed the matters during a regular press briefing held at the ACC headquarters.
Against the backdrop of detained high-profile corruption suspects getting bails, he said everything is happening in accordance with law and there was no flaw in the legal procedures the commission carried out against the suspects.
Hanif said the ACC could not deal with the matter of bail prayers since the state was moving against the bail prayers filed by corru ption suspects
“The court has given its verdict regarding bail prayers. The ACC always files cases or gives approval for filing cases when law permits or allows. The courts also directed us to provide information on a number of matters regarding some cases and we will give it to the courts soon," said Hanif Iqbal.
Hanif also said they might initiate investigations into matters involving parliamentary election candidates if the ACC feels the necessity or if the Election Commission (EC) asks die commission to do so.
