By Adnan Rafique

ISLAMABAD—Yunus Khan, Auditor General of Pakistan after the surfacing of billions of rupees corruption scandal in NTC has initiated special audit of the institution's accounts.
Yunus Khan on Monday briefed the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) that a special audit has been initiated in the accounts of NTC after reports of corruption. He told that immediate notice has been taken. A special team has been sent that is scrutinizing the whole record.

A lot of money has been embezzled. Chairman, Public Accounts Committee (PAC) told that the committee is reviewing the issue separately.
