The same court on May 23 had ordered to freeze 33 bank accounts and attach properties under total 83 deeds of Benazir and his family.
 

Accusing the former IGP of amassing illegal wealth of Taka hundreds of crores under his and his family members' names both at home and abroad, the anti-graft body in its plea on that day had said the accused are trying to sell or hand over the properties and launder the money abroad and if they succeed in doing so, the state would incur a huge loss.
