ISLAMABAD: National Accountability Bureau has decided not to send further notices to members of the Sharif family, sources said on Sunday.

According to the sources, NAB will file a reference in light of the record received by the Panama case Joint Investigation Team.

However, sources said, it was not necessary to arrest the people in question in order to file a reference.

The decision over arrests will be made by the apex court, which will issue warrants if the accused do not appear before the court, sources added.

The accused would be declared proclaimed offenders, while their properties would be seized if they are not arrested, as per the sources.
