Pakistan's government has recently imposed a travel ban on former Prime Minister Imran Khan and his wife Bushra Bibi as part of ongoing graft investigations by the National Accountability Bureau (NAB). The couple has been placed on the Exit Control List (ECL), which is Pakistan’s  border control system.

Although Pakistan last week paid US$28.7 million to a British asset recovery firm it hired nearly two decades ago to find and recover UK-based assets from dozens of Pakistanis, the firm still seeks $3 million in interests and has tried to get hold of London apartments of former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif instead.
