  1. The loss to all these investors is due to the stupid statements of Imran Qadri. This loss should be recovered by selling the personal property including 300kanal Banigala Palace, Zaman Town Bungalow, Agricultural Lands at Mianwali, Model Town Bungalow and a motorcade of bullet-proof SUVs.

    Interestingly, all this wealth is tax evaded because Imran paid hardly a tax of Rs 194,936/- only (source: http://download1.fbr.gov.pk/Docs/201469962916404P… whereas Qadri didn't pay any tax!
