A spokesman for the ministry confirmed to The Express Tribune that the case had been sent to NAB for recovery of Rs450 million. Two other companies have also failed to make payments to NFML, he said.
A statement issued on the directives of Federal Minister for Industries and Production Ghulam Murtaza Jatoi said NFML has recovered Rs570 million from fertiliser transporters and deposited the money in the national exchequer.

In the current case, Inam Transport Company was given a month’s time to deposit the outstanding amount of Rs450 million but it did not meet the deadline. Consequently, the ministry of industries referred its case to NAB for further action.
Ghulam Murtaza Jatoi has stressed that he would ensure a corruption-free administrative system in public sector organisations working under the ministry of industries.
He emphasised that he would not allow misuse of money, strictly follow a zero-tolerance policy towards the defaulters and leave no stone unturned to bring back every penny of the state.
