I just hope this action is not vindictive and it does not translate adversly for Pak Exports
Even the Chartered Accounting Firm tasked with verifying bills of exports for reimbursement were involved in fraud and two of their Senior Associates were arrested and are out on bail. Whom should one trust in Pakistan?. So sad that the nation is being looted
I don't think removing him is enough, I'll gladly be corrupt embezzle billions and take the money and be removed from office. Who would want to work anyway after pocketing billions illegally. Please have the guy arrested, seize all their property and bank accounts and RECOVER the money.
Can we get a hold of the NICL culprits too? Some of them have escaped to London!
Nawaz Sharif , there is no need to build consensus on everything! Just go after these criminals. Don't waste your political capital with all these delays . Go after them NOW!
While Nawaz Sharif takes practical steps to eradicate corruption, Imran Khan and his trolls still make confusing statements. Perhaps the PTI trolls are trying to cover up the corrupts!
Time for Amin Fahim and Tariq Puri and their band of crooks to also face the music. TDAP was reduced to a recruiting platform for corrupt officials during the last few yeara. So much for hoping for a professional trade body in pakistan.
This is the result of not building institutions. Why PM has to direct FIA? If a proper mechanism would have been there then FIA should have started investigations itself
Who is the new TDAP Chief?
