ISLAMABAD: Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) Director General (DG) Bashir Memon is making all-out efforts to save Pakistani Ambassador Sohail Khan who was appointed in South Africa in the Ibrahim Koko case.
According to FIA sources, there is a huge pressure from the Interior Ministry on the FIA DG to ensure a clean chit for ambassador Sohail Khan in the Ibrahim Koko case, whereas, there is no way left for giving clean chit to Suhail Khan in the case investigation.
The second ambassador is Ata Memon who was deputy high commissioner in Bangkok at that time and now he has returned to the Foreign Office (FO) several weeks early while the main character in this case, Colonel Arshad Ameen is missing.
According to sources Arshad Ameen along with his family has escaped to Malaysia or some other country and has settled over there permanently.
The FIA has carried out an unprecedented investigation in the Ibrahim Koko case and has attached solid evidences with this case which proved that Ibrahim Koko was a Burma national and NADRA had written a formal letter to the Bangkok mission that he is not a Pakistani national and that he is, in fact, a Burma national therefore he can not be brought to Pakistan.
Despite all this, Suhail Khan, Atta Munim and Colonel Arshad Ameen proved him a Pakistani and served as a bridge to bring him in Pakistan.
It was written to the FIA that Ibrahim Koko is a Pakistani national and he should be brought to the country but when he came into Pakistan no one accepted him.
It is vital to mention here that the then interior minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan had ordered an investigation into the matter while FIA had registered an FIR.
