KARACHI A three-member team of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) is in Pakistan negotiating further loans to help the country's delapidated legal system, AFP quoted officials as saying Wednesday.

"A three-member ADB appraisal mission is currently in Islamabad holding talks with the authorities to recommend a $350 million loan," an economic affairs division spokesman said.

"The ADB will provide $120 million of the total loan and assist us to get the remaining $230 million from other multilateral agencies."
