The FIA has finally arrested Ayaz Niazi, Don of the sleazy world, while his accomplice, Maj Habibullah Warraich, relaxes in the Services Hospital. His son, Mohsin Warraich, another main character, is still at large believably sunning himself in Spain. However, his red warrants have been issued. FIA teams are likely to proceed to the US, UK, Spain and France. One is sure the FIA boys will have a good time at state expense before they get within the arresting distance of Mohsin Warraich.
What boggles the mind is the way Ayaz Niazi became the chairman NIC, leaving his seedy profession of a nightclub manager in Dubai.
Obviously, the Niazi-NIC affair was not the doing of one individual; it had the powerful interest groups behind it. Everyone in the street knows who the powerful groups are but these groups, unfortunately, have the backing of the most powerful group against whom nobody talks for the fear of being disappeared. Otherwise, this broad daylight mass plunder of the state assets could not have taken place so brazenly.
