The allegations revolve around a piece of land allotted for Al Qadir Trust University, purportedly in exchange for returning £190 million into account of real estate tycoon, Malik Riaz instead of the exchequer. The money was previously seized by British authorities.

The former prime minister is now set to face charges in both cases.
