The largest volume of oil, gas and electricity stolen in Punjab — report

Friday, 21 February 2014


ISLAMABAD: The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has detected over Rs5 billion worth of gas, electricity and oil theft during its raids across the country since July 2013, officials from the agency told members of the Senate Standing Committee on Interior and Narcotics on Thursday.

Around Rs900 million have been recovered from oil, gas and power thieves in the same period, senior FIA officials said. As many as 754 FIRs have been registered against illegal power users across the country and 715 of the accused have been arrested so far, they added.

The Senate panel was informed that the largest volume of power theft was reported from Punjab.



FIA Director Administration Tariq Butt revealed that a raiding team traced the largest gas theft to a single factory in Sheikhupura, which amounted to Rs2 billion. The factory owner was even generating electricity from the illegal gas connection through a 1MW generator, he said.

Butt said oil theft was particularly high because of a lack of any transparent transport mechanism. “An oil tanker carrying Rs6 million worth of oil is entrusted to a single driver, who can steal some of it at any time,” he told panel members. Acting FIA Director General Ghalib Ali said that during investigation, the agency also collected important data on illegal businesses which could also be used for purposes such as tax evasion.

FIA officials suggested that the agency have a specialised wing to crack down on power theft, which would include experts from the oil, gas and power sector. They added that the FIA required at least 1,200 additional staffers for this assignment.

Zardari purchases 2-kanal house for PPP Secretariat

Tuesday, 4 February 2014

05-02-2014 | Dawn
LAHORE: In an interesting political development, former president Asif Ali Zardari has bought a two-kanal house for the Pakistan People’s Party Punjab Secretariat in the neighbourhood of the PML-N’s provincial headquarters in Model Town.

The Model Town house in C Block has been bought in the name of Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, Bakhtawar Bhutto and Assefa Bhutto. The Sharifs own the PML-N Secretariat in H Block (Model Town).

The PPP leadership has now decided to shift its provincial headquarters from Faisal Town to Model Town. “The old secretariat in Faisal Town will be used for seven other wings of the party,” PPP Punjab President Manzoor Ahmad Wattoo.

The PPP, which received drubbing in the general election in Punjab, has been in financial crunch for quite some time. It had acquired the Model Town office on rent before the election. A notice to vacate the house was served on the party when it did not pay the rent for a couple of months. It even had no money to pay the salaries of the employees there as well as those of Faisal Town.

The situation was brought to the knowledge of Asif Ali Zardari who not only directed some ‘rich’ party members including Wattoo to donate (to the party funds) but also sent the amount from his pocket to buy the Model Town office.

Manzoor Wattoo said the PPP had bought the new secretariat out of its funds. He confirmed that it had been purchased in the name of Bilawal, Bakhtawar and Assefa.

Bilawal, who is scheduled to arrive in the provincial capital within a month or so, may not visit the new secretariat because of security concerns. He usually stays in the bomb-proof Bilawal House at Bahria Town. Property tycoon Malik Riaz had got it built for Mr Zardari and members of his family. Zardari claims he had bought the Bilawal House (from Riaz).

Fawad Chaudhry, media adviser to Bilawal, said Mr Bilawal would arrive in Lahore by the end of this month or early next month and have meetings with the party workers especially the youth. Bilawal believes threats cannot deter him from engaging in political activities.

Shi’ite protesters ostracize the PTI team — Report

Thursday, 23 January 2014

24-01-2014 | Dawn
LAHORE: The Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf leaders on Thursday faced embarrassment when the participants of the sit-in outside the Governor’s House did not allow them to join the protest for having “soft corner” for the Taliban.

A large number of people, including women and children, had camped outside the Governor’s House since 5pm on Wednesday under the umbrella of the Majlis Wahdatul Muslimeen (MWM) and Imamia Students Organisation to protest against the killing of Shia pilgrims in Balochistan’s Mastung district.

The participants were determined to continue with the protest till stern action against militants involved in the attacks is not initiated.

The charged participants seemed to have drawn a line between those having soft corner for the extremists and the ones who are against them.

As no one from the PML-N or the Punjab government bothered to express solidarity with the participants of the sit-in, the PTI leaders – Ejaz Chaudhry and Andleep Abbas – visited them.

However, the protesters asked the PTI leaders that they should better leave as “we don’t need sympathy from those who support the Taliban.” A group of the participants tried to convince others to let the PTI leaders sit with them but to no avail.

The same situation did not arise when the PPP leaders – Jehangir Badr and Manzoor Wattoo – reached there. “Bilawal Bhutto Zardari had given a message for you! We will not surrender before terrorists,” Wattoo told the participants.
“We demand that the PML-N government bring all assailants to justice,” he said.

On the other hand, the MWM leaders said they would not end the protest in Lahore till the relatives of those killed in Quetta ended the sit-in there.

The MWM leaders - Allama Ahmad Iqbal Rizvi, Allama Imtiaz Kazmi, Allama Syed Jaffer Mousavi, Allama Syed Mubarak Ali Mousavi, Allama Syed Husain Najfi, Allama Husnain Arif and Syed Asad Abbas Naqvi – also addressed the protesters. They demanded that the government launch a “targeted military operation” in Quetta to hunt down the terrorists.

The motorists in the provincial capital faced great inconvenience because of more than 30-hour sit-in on The Mall.

The participants, especially elderly women and children, showed no sign of withdrawal despite cold weather.

“Soon after coming from school I had a lunch and then my father brought me here. He told me that we have come here to register protest against the killing of innocent people in Quetta,” Komail Raza, a grade-III student, told Dawn at the sit-in.

“I would attend my school tomorrow though I will go to bed late. I think my presence may force the rulers to arrest the killers of the innocent people,” Komail said.

PTI exposes its true colours, demands release of governor’s killer

Thursday, 20 June 2013

20-06-2013 | ET
ISLAMABAD: A Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) MNA called for the release of Malik Mumtaz Qadri, the man who gunned down Punjab Governor Salmaan Taseer in 2011. PTI MNA from Mardan, Mujahid Ali Khan made the demand during a debate on the budget in the National Assembly.

Khan had won the NA-11 seat in the May 11 elections.

Another PTI MNA Arif Alvi clarified that Khan had made this demand in his personal capacity, and this had nothing to do with the party.

Earlier in 2011, PTI chairman Imran Khan had condemned Qadri’s reception as a hero on the premises of the Anti Terrorism Court, Rawalpindi.

“Extremism and radicalism have penetrated our society deeply,” he had said, adding that it is especially harmful for the youth.

Qadri never argued that he had not killed Taseer – shortly after he shot him dead, Qadri said his motive was Taseer’s apparent opposition to the country’s blasphemy law. But if the murder wasn’t shocking enough, it was the stringent defence put up by religious parties, whose activists showered rose petals on Qadri at his court hearing, brought him flowers on Valentine’s Day and set up Facebook pages glorifying him.

FAFEN: Punjab leads in the list of polling stations with over 100% turnout

Monday, 13 May 2013

14-05-2013 | FAFEN
ISLAMABAD, May 13, 2013 – Based on data gathered by Free and Fair Election Network observers at polling stations showing impossible voter turnout greater than 100%, FAFEN called on the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) to release all polling station Statements of the Count (Form XIV) to the public on its website before certifying any final election results in any constituency.

The voter turnout was more than 100% in at least 49 polling stations out of 8,119 polling stations sampled by FAFEN across Pakistan, according to Statements of the Count delivered so far by FAFEN observers.
ECP must not include votes from these polling stations in calculations of constituency election results, and should consider re-polling in these stations.

At least 32 polling stations with greater than 100% turnout were in Punjab, 10 in Sindh, six in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and one in Balochistan. The polling stations with impossible voter turnout figures included 19 female polling stations, 16 male stations and 14 combined (male and female) stations.

Voter turnout is calculated on the basis of the registered voters for each polling station as given on the ECP website http://ecp.gov.pk/PollingScheme.aspx. Polling stations included in the analysis are only those in which presiding officers accurately calculated the total number of ballots as recorded on the Statement of the Count (Form XIV).

FAFEN has recommended since 2008 that ECP should void the results from any polling station where more ballots are cast than the number of registered voters, and should investigate highly improbable cases of voter turnout, such as those greater than 80%.

Best practice for election transparency requires that polling station ballot counts and vote counts should be posted as quickly as possible on the ECP website, both as scans of the original forms and in data tables that can be scrutinized. This information was made public by ECP for the first time many months after General Election 2008, based on persistent FAFEN advocacy.
