FIA team raids Malik’s house to arrest him despite knowing he’s not in the country
Family claims Chaudhry Nisar using FIA to harass former NADRA chief
The government on Saturday issued arrest warrants against former National Database and Registration Authority (NADRA) chairman Tariq Malik.
A three-member team of the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) raided Malik’s residence on Saturday to arrest him in connection with a FIR registered under Section 163 CPC for concealing official facts. Interestingly, the FIA knows that Tariq Malik is currently not in Pakistan.
Malik’s family members claimed that Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar was using the FIA for his vested political interests.
“We will adopt a legal course. Justice Noorul Haq Qureshi of the Islamabad High Court (IHC) has already penned down a detailed judgment in favor of Tariq Malik—who left the country after two months of his resignation from the post, but FIA wants to arrest him now. The timing of this move is not incomprehensible,” said Malik’s brother Professor Tahir Malik.
The FIA has accused Malik of not declaring himself as a government employee on his official passport. Malik was an IT expert and was hired as a technocrat by the government, Malik’s brother explained. He said that Nisar had already told parliament that a number of bureaucrats are dual nationals but there was no constitutional restriction on their appointment. A number of government advisors are currently dual nationals, including Shujaat Azeem, aviation advisor to the Prime Minister.
An FIA official said that the option to issue red warrants against Malik is also under consideration. The FIA had started probing about the Interior Ministry’s show-cause notice and charge-sheet prepared by the audit authorities.
The Interior Ministry, in the last week of December 2013, had issued a four-page show-cause notice to Malik, levelling charges against him of concealing facts, misuse of official powers and financial irregularities.
In his detailed verdict, Justice Qureshi of IHC held that the government’s decision to remove Malik from NADRA and levelling charges against him was based on ill intent.
I visualize thanking the blogger very much not only for this post excluding also for his all preceding efforts.
KAAFIRS ALWAYS INFIGHTING BLAME GAMES LIKE ROBBERS MAFIA WHILE AWAAM SUFFERS .. FIRANGI GULAMS LIKE QUADRI IMRANKHAN ARE WORSHIPPED .. PAK MISRULED BY ARMY DICTATORS ..FUNDED BY CIA .. LOCAL AGENTS OF CIA =ISI QUADRI IMRANKHAN
How many warrants are issued for dual citizens that are or were serving in various key govt posts or part of the government? No matter how PMLN and Ch. Nisar put it, it is a simple case of trying to sabotage image of a true Govt. servant who refused to surrender to the wills of ch. Nisar and company!
