Ahmediyya Jamaat - The ‘Caliph’ Launders Money — Panama Papers

[airmarshal]

“for I have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility against every form of tyranny over the mind of man.” — Thomas Jefferson, 1800

New ‘Caliph’ is always the former Money Mirza
The pitiable followers of the Qadiani Ahmadiyya cult are led to believe that God selects their ‘Caliph’. Two years before he was ‘elected’ by the Mirza Family, by 2001, it was widely known that Mirza Masroor Ahmad would be the next ‘Caliph’. Why? He handled the money and was responsible for moving charity money from Pakistan to offshore accounts and then to family-controlled investments in the United Kingdom and elsewhere in the West.

Mirza Masroor Ahmad commands complete authority over his organization (examiner.com)
And the next ‘Caliph’ will be the one from the Mirza Family who handles and launders charitable money through secretive off-shore channels and can be trusted by all branches of the Mirza Family to maintain their trust funds.

Prior to that, Mirza Tahir Ahmad (next article) and Mirza Nasir Ahmad were the money men prior to becoming ‘Caliphs’ in 1982 and 1965 respectively.

Summit, Nusrat and Alhamad Offshore Properties Companies
These were the off-shore companies run by Mirza Masroor Ahmad, when he was de facto head of Qadiani Ahmadiyya in Pakistan, and with the nominee address of Abdul Baqi Arshad in London, U.K. The directors are all members of the Mirza Family and NOT directly in the Finance Department. When it became clear in 2001 that Mirza Masroor would be the next ‘Caliph’, two of the companies were dissolved and one dissolved immediately after he ascended to the leadership in April 2003.

The other directors named below are not from the same branch of the family as Mirza Masroor Ahmad and held non-related posts within the organizations and also worked outside the organization in the private sector during these periods.

The unanswerable questions are:

• If this is private property of the Syed (Mir) branch of the Mirza family, what is Mirza Masroor — a very senior official and head of Ahmadiyya Pakistan at the time — doing as a director?
• If it is the property of the organization, why were private individuals from the Mirza family on the board. During this period, it has always been illegal to to transfer substantial funds out of Pakistan.

The only logical answer is: the Mirza family runs the Qadiani Ahmadiyya organization as a family business.

Fazal Enterprises run by Qamar Suleman Ahmad
When it became apparent that Mirza Masroor Ahmad was going to become the next ‘Caliph’, this company is incorporated and funds from the above companies transferred to it. This entity is now run by the same individuals in Pakistan, without fear of ‘persecution’. It is becoming apparent that Qamar Suleman Ahmad is now the family money man. We also have information that companies now exist in Luxembourg and/or Jersey that have taken over from the Panama and Virgin Islands companies.

Syed Qamar Suleman Ahmad
However, Mirza Masroor Ahmad is in good health and the line of succession is not yet clear as the ‘Caliph-in-waiting’ of the Mirza family is usually promoted through Finance (Wakil Maal) and the bureaucracy.

Mirza Fazal Ahmad (of TJ Holdings) was promoted to Wakil Maal II but it appears that he has been shunted aside.

Do Persecuted Sit in Pakistan and Have Off-shore Companies?
While there is general discrimination against Ahmadis in Pakistan, for which I blame both sides, the Qadiani Ahmadiyya organisation is allowed to function without hindrance. Their donations, their places of worship and their central offices in Chanab Nagar (Rabwah) function as they always have. They run their own bank (Amanat) in addition to having accounts with national banks, all of which have branches in Chanab Nagar (Rabwah).

Many of the directors of these off-shore companies give their home addresses in Chanab Nagar and in Lahore.

Question: If there was any risk to organization money in Pakistan and it had to be moved abroad, why were these directors of off-shore companies Pakistani residents, and not Ahmadis in the West?

The answer is obvious: the Mirza family is mostly based in Pakistan and there is not, and has never been, any risk to private property in Pakistan.

Also, if there was risk as has been suggested by some, the Mirza Family would let the duly appointed financial officers of the organization execute these laundering arrangements, and not put family members on the line. In the early 2000s, when only one Mirza family member was arrested in Pakistan, a member of the Canadian Parliament flew down to Pakistan to get him released. So, it is correct to assume that these Pakistani directors of off-shore companies see no risk to themselves and just want the family interests protected.

The Draconian Collector — Mirza Masroor Ahmad
Mirza Masroor’s period has been known to be focused on one thing — money collection — above all. Every couple of years he publicly scolds his secretaries of finance of being aggressive (which is quoted by some) but here is how he threatens internally, including the poorest of the poor in the West — benefits recipients:

Net income includes social benefits and unemployment benefits:

Net income includes social benefits for the poor
There are handy calculators that show how 8–12% of the income of those on benefits will be tithed. The number is even higher because one income earner has to pay the mandatory amounts for non-working seniors and women, and even children and toddlers — see below.

Donation Calculators
Social Stigmatization if not ‘Voluntary’ Participation
So the Wasiyyat programme is ‘voluntary’ and it means that 10% of income (in addition to other ‘mandatory’ donations) and all property of a cult member is donated to the organization in return for a grave in a specially designated ‘heavenly graveyard’. Note how the ‘caliph’ threatens to replace office-holders in this letter, and we thought they were elected!

I would like to emphasize that the instructions from Hudhur Anwar (Mirza Masroor Ahmad) clearly indicate that the non-Moosi (not participating in voluntary Wasiyyat programme) office-bearers should be replaced by Moosis. It has been further advised that the Chanda (donation) details of office bearers should be properly checked and the relevant members may be advised where the payments are not being made at the prescribed rate.

A Dollar or Two from Toddlers — no comment


Toddlers should donate a dollar or two
Worship Halls are Built and Maintained Locally, and owned Nationally
Another excuse being floated around is that the money held in off-shore companies is used to build and maintain places of worship. This is a lie. Here is a list of towns in U.K. and the amounts they are expected to raise as part of the ‘Mosque Fund’. Note that it is a simple formula of £2,000 per person — man, woman and child. In addition to their regular burden, members contribute for years towards this fund and then build a worship hall, which is automatically owned (unlike other religions) by the ‘Centre’ of the country. Here is a sample of targets from a recent internal document leaked to us:

London Region Official ‘Mosque Fund’ Targets:

Area — — Number of Members — — TARGET

BAITUL FUTUH(BFU) — 450 — £700,000.00

BALHAM (BAL) — 310 — £500,000.00

CHEAM (CHM) — 350 — £500,000.00

CLAPHAM (CLP) — 200 — £300,000.00

Conclusion
The former Money Mirza is now the ‘Caliph’. He was friends with Abdul Baqi Arshad (who was used as the contact and who is a senior director of many UK charities as well as many off-shore companies — see below) long before he was in U.K. He was head of off-shore companies while head of Qadiani Ahmadiyya Pakistan and he had other family members, and not his financial officers, as directors. When it was apparent he would become the new ‘caliph’, the off-shore companies he headed were dissolved, and have been replaced by others.

Building places of worship and maintaining them is local.

We re-iterate that it is not ethical for any charity official to engage in such off-shore companies in locations that guarantee secrecy. There was no risk in keeping or investing money in Pakistan, or once laundered abroad, to keep in open and transparent company structures. Also, the directors of these off-shore secret companies in Pakistan did not see any risk in their activities or continued directorship, or any risk in the laundering of money out of the country for investment.

The ONLY people being fooled are the poor Ahmadis of Pakistan. They deserve much better leadership than the Mirza family that survives through hatred of Muslims and Pakistan, crying wolf all the time. They take the mo

ney of their poor followers, contribute to a hostile environment for them in Paksitan, and then treat them with such disdain and tyranny.

The Charity attacks like other Money Launderers

In response to the "); background-size: 1px 1px; background-position-y: calc(1em + 1px);">investigation on the offshore accounts of a global charity, a "); background-size: 1px 1px; background-position-y: calc(1em + 1px);">venomous ad hominem piece was posted online. I had not planned to reply to it as it failed to address the questions raised.

I am glad that my investigation resulted in the admission that the Pakistan Qadiani Ahmadiyya organization does use offshore accounts to send money abroad. The donors in Pakistan are generally very poor and if the offshoring of their donations is not in their direct benefit and it never comes back, then where does it go? With the focus on anti-corruption and anti-money-laundering (AML) on the world today, it is worth an investigation. I hope it all turns out to be innocuous, but what is the harm in the truth or ‘giving a money trail’ as so many people involved with money laundering have been asked in recent years? Why attack me like other accused money launderers have "); background-size: 1px 1px; background-position-y: calc(1em + 1px);">attacked everyone under the sun, but not provided a money trail?

Due to the FATF spotlight on Pakistan especially with reference to charities, and on the insistence of a couple of close friends, I have been asked to write a point-wise response. The list actually starts with ‘0’ so as to keep the rest of the numbers the same as in the attack piece.

0. ‘Kill . . . hate group’. I have never been part of, or associated with any hate group. When in the United Kingdom, I was spokesman for the Khatm-e-Nubuwwat Academy in East London that is run by Sohail Bawa. By the same definition as in the attack article, it is also a registered charity and supervised and audited by the UK government. I volunteered to be their spokesperson as the Qadiani Ahmadiyya were falsely trying to connect the terrorist attacks in Lahore in 2010 with this organization in London UK. Since Sohail Bawa was a friend, and was worried about this attack, I helped him out and successfully showed in the media and to the Crown Prosecution Services that the "); background-size: 1px 1px; background-position-y: calc(1em + 1px);">Qadiani attack was ill-founded and full of malice

1. ‘Full-time anti-Ahmad fanatic . . .devoted his professional career’. I am a software architect by profession and rarely find the time to write on Ahmadiyya issues despite hundreds of requests. Maybe I should write more!

2. Offshore accounts are used for international transfers and parking of funds. Even if each country’s charity was legitimate, the question is about international transactions and transfers and why a group of charities needs that channel. Regarding the personal attack on my companies, I was living in UK under the HSMP (Highly Skilled Migrant Program) but was denied renewal due to a technical days’ count issue as I had spent some time in Canada. Instead of appealing, I moved back to Canada and wound up my software company and publishing company in UK. What is so sinister about that? Is there anything wrong?

3. An offshore account is definitely not a crime. My question was simple: what purpose are these offshore accounts serving for a group of international charities? A charity is supposed to be more transparent than a for-profit company. Isn’t it so?

4. A classic straw man attack. The Qadiani donation-collectors hound poor people, thus the leader has to ask them to back off as per the quote in the attack piece. That, in itself, defeats the purpose of voluntary contributions and the religious concept of ‘cleansing’ through financial giving.

5. An example of the ‘dubious’ organization is ‘Mirza Sharif Ahmad Foundation’ (MSAF). The accountant is shared between it and the parent international organization (AMJ International), and so are some of the directors and the goals are almost the same. In its last statement (2018), MSAF and AMJI both says that there are no shared directors and they both claim that Mirza Masroor Ahmad is the spiritual and official head of the organizations and yet they do not declare him as a PSC (person with significant control). AMJI gives millions to MSAF to buy and maintain property in the UK and elsewhere. Why can’t AMJI or AMJ UK do the same work when the people who are ostensibly housed in these properties are AMJ UK employees or designated missionaries?

6. Balancing books for a single organization is a tactical task. Funneling money between related and non-arms-length charities within the same country (UK) and under a single leader is dubious and points to strategic coordination. What is the purpose? Pray tell. For example, if MSAF were to be dissolved tomorrow, its finances would not flow back to AMJI as they were ‘grants’. And since a member of the Mirza Family (Mirza Mahmood Ahmad) is the main MSAF director, would he not have control over any winding up or delegation of funds? Would this be discussed in the Shura of AMJ UK or International Shura? Why does money from Canada and Germany and USA need to be collected in UK under a charity that sends it out to other charities that are not under the checks and balance system of the national charities?

7. Why did Mirza Masroor Ahmad need to dissolve his predecessor’s offshore accounts and set up new companies, new charities and new offshore companies when he came to power in 2003. The investment in properties that is one-way, i.e. money from donations ‘granted’ to newly formed end charities for purposes that are within the remit of the established charities.

8. Unrelated

9. So, are we to assume that the Pakistan organization is saving its money offshore to save it from the government of Pakistan? Isn’t it registered in Pakistan with audited accounts and immense real estate property? Why does it need to hide? Does it ever bring it back? Those are the questions that are not answered. Why try to conflate individuals’ experiences with an organization that is regulated by the government of Pakistan and enjoys all its assets and has not once been threatened with asset freezing. Is cash its only asset that needs to be protected from the government? If it is sent abroad, and not laundered or not brought back, isn’t that the definition of hoarding?

10. Out of the unrelated statements, the only concrete phrase is ‘security, not evasion’. Security I have addressed in (9) above and evasion is not something I accused anyone of. Laundering and transferring to other countries is what I was proposing as the reason of offshore accounts. The question is, if the Pakistan Qadiani organization has billions of non-cash assets that are safe and its accounts are audited annually by the Pakistan government and the government has never confiscated any cash, why park the cash outside in offshore accounts through personal channels? At the risk of repeating myself, is it ever brought back, and if not, where does it end up? What is the benefit to the donor in Pakistan, who is poor and contribute fresh sums every year? In other words, the internal cash flow of the Pakistan organization is steady and continuous.

I will elaborate more on this as time goes on. Now that the fallout from the Panama Papers in Pakistan is well established, I hope that this Qadiani Ahmadiyya setup gets looked into and I hope that it turns out to be all innocent. If there is something amiss, the culprits need to be caught. The disconcerting thing is that a charity had to go to these troubles and mark itself as the only substantial multi-national charity doing this type of financial dealing. And then it had to attack me for asking questions!
