According to NAB, the 2025 recovery will total Rs6.213 trillion.

According to the National Accountability Bureau (NAB), the watchdog recovered about Rs 6 trillion in 2025.

During a media briefing on the NAB’s performance, Deputy Chairman Sohail Nasir stated that the anti-graft agency had recovered a record-breaking Rs6.213 trillion, the highest amount ever recovered annually since the Bureau’s founding in 1999.

He disclosed that the Kohistan fraud has grown to a total of Rs 40 billion, of which Rs 6 billion has already been retrieved. He continued by saying that enormous sums of money were concealed within paint containers and walls in the Kohistan incident.

Director General (Operations) NAB said that Rs 26 billion linked to the Kohistan scandal has been deposited into the national exchequer

The bureaucracy can now make choices on its own, he continued, since the accusations of harassment by NAB have been dropped. He threatened to punish anyone who made unfounded accusations.

The DG Operations added that after complaints are received, the identities of the complainants are kept private. He went on to say that a unique system has been put in place for businesspeople, lawmakers, and the bureaucracy, and that in some situations, complaints are sent straight to the appropriate organizations.

Media trials based only on complaints have been terminated, according to DG Operations NAB Abdul Majeed Olakh. He also mentioned the establishment of facilitation cells for complaints against lawmakers under the separate assembly speakers. The speaker provides the initial response for transparency, but NAB is not required to accept it as final.
