“It is a sub-judice matter and I think this opportunity will not be applicable for him (Benazir),” he said responding to a journalist query about the former IGP Benazir's properties.
The government has created a scope of whitening black money in the proposed national budget for the next fiscal to bring the businessmen’s legitimate income under TAX net, he said.
