An accountability court on Saturday acquitted real estate tycoon Malik Riaz and his son, Ali Riaz, in the 1,401 kanal land fraud case.
The Anti-Corruption Establishment (ACE) had registered a case against Bahria Town and some officials of the Punjab Revenue Department on November 4, 2009, on the complaints of residents of some villagers near Rawat. Malik Riaz, his son and others were accused of bribing revenue officials to get 1,401 kanals of ‘shamilat’, or community land, transferred to their names on fake documents.
However, in October last year, the ACE on request of NAB transferred the matter to the accountability court.
The NAB prosecutor had submitted a plea under Section 31-B, stating that after examining the available record and evidence, the bureau had found that Malik Riaz and his son were not liable to be accused.
Accountability court judge Chaudhry Abdul Haq reserved the judgment Saturday morning and issued it later in the day, acquitting Malik Riaz and his son, Ali Riaz, of all charges while accepting a plea bargain of Patwari Rizwan.
Arsalan did his job….!
Corrupt and incompetent, uneducated judges!
Malik Riaz and the judge shows the nation the mirror of the depth of decadence, corruption and shamelessness that Pakistan has sunk to.
Thugs and thieves, scoundrels and pimps rule the entire spectrum of that country?
Rest assured, nothing good comes out of that place!
MADE IN PAKISTAN
When a government body who registered the case says in the court they dont have evidence case falls apart!
As government going next week, gift of Bahria Town house to president made the trick!
all innocent by the standards of most corrupt government on earth
Not surprised. We can expect nothing else these days.
