The act of attacking GHQ is equivalent to attacking Pakistan’s defense, and the individuals from Tehreek-e-Insaf who carried out the attack may not fully understand the gravity of the situation. There should be consequences for this offense including Capital Punishment, and even the senior leadership of Tehreek-e-Insaf, including Imran Niazi, may be held accountable for their involvement under Army Act 1952 Section 59. However, not only for this arson, PTI should be banned based on this one case I had been meaning to write this for a long time.
In the Al-Qadir Trust University case that Imran Khan is simplifying and presenting as politically inspired, Malik Riyadh and his son’s visa for London are not being approved. Al-Qadir still couldn’t register as a college because the financial statement has not been submitted yet. Al-Qadir is not a university but is registered as a trust. Since Al-Qadir cannot issue degrees, students have to take exams at GCU Lahore. Currently, Al-Qadir is a tuition center. As of April 2022, there were only 37 students, but the revenue was 281 million.
The main person involved in the Al Qadir Trust case is Malik Riaz, who illegally built Bahria Town Karachi on encroached land with the help of the PPP leadership, the Sindh government, the Malir Development Authority, the Sindh police, and security agencies. However, despite this, none of the anti-corruption agencies have initiated any case against him.
The UK’s National Crime Agency fined Malik Riaz £140 million, and that amount was sent back to Pakistan, but it was given to the Supreme Court as part of Malik Riaz’s settlement over the Bahria Town scandal case instead of being used for the country’s benefit. The UK government froze GBP 190 million in assets belonging to Malik Riaz, saying they were proceeds of corruption from Pakistan. Malik Riaz agreed to settle the case by giving up those assets, and the Pakistan government was entitled to receive them.
Imran Khan and the PTI Cabinet agreed to let this money be used to pay off the Bahria Town Karachi fine owed by Malik Riaz, and in return, Malik Riaz gifted land worth billions to a trust owned by Imran Khan and Bushra. This is clear proof of bribery. The Supreme Court allowed public money to be used to pay off Malik Riaz’s fine, and when applications were filed seeking details of money paid by Malik Riaz and the actual boundaries of Bahria Town Karachi, the Registrar said it was confidential.
