Hello | 9 years ago | Reply Focus should also be given to Pakistan Petroleum Limited. The SECP had unearthed embezzlement worth hundreds of millions through Insider Trading practices. PPL's DMD Moin Raza Khan and CFO Kamran Wahab Khan were both found guilty on charges of stock price manipulation involving the company's Provident Trust Fund. No action to date has been taken against them despite SECP ruling pointing otherwise. FIA and other concerned authorities should probe PPL as this organization has pretty much evaded detection. Once properly look into this state owned entity would hit headlines in terms of the deep rooted corruption / fraud that has been going on for decades without much notice. Its time to expose them as well. After PSO, SSGC, OGDCL its their turn now and for all the right reasons !

Shamim Farooq | 9 years ago | Reply Focus should now shift towards Pakistan Petroleum Limited, where through Insider Trading practice hundreds of millions have been embezzled from the company's Provident Trust Fund. The current DMD Moin Raza Khan and CFO Kamran Wahab of PPL, have been under the radar of Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan, since 2012. FIA should defensively interrogate the matter and bring the culprits to justice.
