FIA on Monday declared Indian-origin National Bank of Pakistan (NBP) Vice-President Dr Mirza Ibrar Beg as a security risk and leveled charges of damaging national interests and fraud against him.
According to sources, FIA recommended blocking CNICs of Dr Beg’s family until completion of investigation against him. It said that bank accounts of the armed forces and security institutions were insecure in presence of a suspected person at a key position. The FIA said that Ibrar, originally an Indian national, came to Pakistan along with his family in 1992. He obtained Pakistani nationality and other necessary documents by giving the Karachi address of FIA Deputy Director Khaliquz Zaman. They said that his Indian name was Haris Beg and he changed his date of birth from September 26, 1977 to December 10, 1980 and got it included in his Pakistani and international documents which were issued on September 26, 1992.
His wife Jui Beg also changed the actual date and place of birth. She showed her date of birth as May 19, 1986 instead of May 19, 1985 and place of birth as Karachi instead of Jamshedpur in the Indian state of Bihar.
The report said that Ibrar had a fake PhD degree on basis of which he writes doctor with his name. It said that at the time of seeking Pakistani nationality, he did not disclose the name of his children and by doing so he not only violated the laws but also caused serious damage to security of Pakistan. FIA said that the Directorate of Immigration and Passport was an equal partner in this crime. It went on to say that once ISI also started investigations into suspicious activities of Ibrar but he managed a favourable report from Major Nisar, who was son-in-law of former ISI Sindh sector commander Brigadier Huda, to whom Mirza obliged through certain benefits and jobs on his recommendation.
