Misuse of secret funds: Ex-DG IB to appear in SC today


Col (retd) Iqbal Niazi, ex-director general Intelligence Bureau (IB) will appear in the Supreme Court today (Thursday) to provide facts to the apex court regarding handing over of Rs3 million to Nazir Naji in 1999 from the secret funds.

The bureau has so far not been able to provide information in this regard. On the last hearing (26-08-2013), the Supreme Court had summoned Col (retd) Iqbal Niazi and Major (retd) Farid Jadoon to provide the needed information.

Documents available with The News state that in case C.M.A.4671/2012 in H.R.C.19/1996, Asad Kharal, a journalist, had submitted in the Supreme Court that ‘The IB had provided Rs3 million to Nazir Naji, a journalist who at that time was not only columnist attached to an Urdu newspaper but also remained government official in his capacity as chairman Pakistan Academy of Letters, Government of Pakistan from 3-4-1997 to 22-10-199. Currently he is editor of an Urdu language newspaper. Saeed Mehdi, PS to then PM Nawaz Sharif on directions of prime minister, called on then DG IB Col (retd) Iqbal Niazi in prime minister secretariat and conveyed the message of his boss (Sharif) regarding provision of Rs3 million to the said journalist. Major (r) Farid Jadoon who was then personal staff officer to DG IB Niazi delivered the amount (Rs3 million) to the house of journalist. IB also managed to record audio and video recording of journalist’s confession. This recording had been conducted by the Col. Ehsanul Haq, the then Provincial (Punjab) chief of IB with the presence of Col. (Retd) Iqbal Niazi.”

Upon the above mentioned details, the Supreme Court acknowledged the information and passed an order which reads: Mr. Asad Kharal has placed on record under his signatures another document stating therein that IB had provided rupees three million to Nazir Naji, a journalist, in the year 1999, when he was working as government officer. He claims that the documents are authentic and takes full responsibility for the same. Both these documents be sent to the D.G. (IB), for the purpose of examining and submitting a report about the authenticity or otherwise of its contents, after having seen the record and other evidence, reference to which has been made in the application wherein the story of distribution of rupees three million to a journalist has been noted.”

The apex court August 26 order reads: “It is pointed by Mr Asad Kharal that notice has been sent to Col (retd) Iqbal Niazi and Maj (retd) Farid Jadoon through ministry of defence and it would be appropriate if the notice is served upon the said persons through DG IB. Order accordingly for want of time. The matter is adjourned to 5th September, 2013 to be fixed at serial number 1.”

nawaz sharif father of lifafa culture in Pakistan journalism !!
 
you can curse zardari a lot but he was genius when it came to finishing the five year period without military coup and his diplomacy

he maybe the biggest crook, criminal, thief, robber but this is a fact too
 
I just loved the way Nawaz Sharif started long list of praises for Zardari instead of praising democracy. I'm sure noora's supporters really enjoyed that part.. :rofl:

For him more important is his five years in PM seat he does not want AZ to make any waves for next five years, like he practically did not do anything to create waves for him during his tenure as President.

AZ acknowledged by saying that I will let you enjoy for five years. But NS will not let him take next BARI
 

مجھے یقین ہے کہ منتخب صدر ممنون حسین بھی پاکستان کی ایسے ہی خدمت کریں گے جیسے جناب آصف زرداری صاحب نے کی ہے - وزیراعظم نواز شریف


@arushbhai @RAMPAGE are you too satisfied with whatever NS has said? :laugh:
