Under section ______ of NAO, the chairman NAB shail have the power, at any stage of inquiry investigation, to direct the arrest of accused

The power of the Chairman NAB to direct arrest during inquiry/investigation under the National Accountability Ordinance (NAO), 1999, primarily stems from Section 18(e), which was later amended, and also implicitly relates to general powers under the Ordinance, with specific provisions in the amendments often clarifying or limiting these powers (like requiring court permission for arrest in certain circumstances).
