The joint opposition has agreed to Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s proposal regarding setting up of a joint parliamentary committee to develop consensus on the Terms of Reference (TORs) to probe the allegations leveled in the Panama Papers.

The decision was taken after Leader of Opposition in National Assembly Khursheed Shah, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan and PTI Vice Chairman Shah Mehmood Qureshi’s meeting with National Assembly Speaker Sardar Ayaz Sadiq in Islamabad on Tuesday.

Both were called by the speaker for a meeting when a meeting of the joint opposition headed by Khursheed Shah was underway at the Parliament House.

Earlier in the day, opposition members prepared a new 12-page questionnaire consisting of 70 questions for the prime minister on the issue of Panama Leaks, a day after declaring his speech in the National Assembly ‘unsatisfactory’.

According to sources, Speaker Ayaz Sadiq discussed matters pertaining to formation of a parliamentary committee and sought names of members from the opposition in this regard. Sadiq also urged them to return to the House.

Later, Khursheed Shah briefed the joint opposition regarding the development. All the members agreed to end their boycott of NA and Senate proceedings.

During his speech in the National Assembly on Monday, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif proposed setting up of a joint parliamentary committee to decide the TORs to probe allegations of Panama Papers.

Giving a policy statement on the issue, Nawaz Sharif asked the speaker to form a committee in consultation with leader of the opposition and other parliamentary leaders.

The prime minister who presented his tax record before the House and gave details about family assets abroad and sources of their financing, said more evidence can be presented to the committee.

70 QUESTIONS:

The opposition has worked out a questionnaire containing 70 questions for Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on the issue of Panama Leaks.

Leader of Opposition in National Assembly Khusheed Shah had said following the prime minister’s address in the National Assembly that it had raised 70 new questions instead of answering the seven that they had asked.

The questions relate to financial dealings of the Sharif family including questions about many of the illegal money laundering transactions, benami properties and companies of Nawaz Sharif and his family, transfer of money into offshore accounts, luxury suites at Park Lane in London, money laundering through illegal Hawala and Hundi means and misappropriation of $30 million loan facility from the Faysal Bank.

These are yes or no questions which detail the alleged financial wrongdoings of the Sharif family and their associates and ask the prime minister to admit or refute them. Analysts believe that the opposition parties had come up with these questions beforehand and the opposition leader’s statement that the prime minister’s speech had raised 70 new questions was a set up for the release of the questionnaire. Analysts point to the details of cases that the parties managed to come up with during a brief meeting on Tuesday. They also point to the fact that almost none of the questions directly relate to prime minister’s speech in the House on Monday.

The questions portray the Sharif family as being run like an organised crime ring by its patriarch. They show an elaborate criminal enterprise consisting of many companies and individuals including members of Finance Minister Ishaq Dar’s family, international ‘business’ associates as well as fictitious persons all coming together to set up accounts, launder money, create companies and obtain loans which ultimately benefit Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and his family.

The PM has been asked the following questions:

  1. Isn`t it true that Khalid Siraj, your first cousin and business partner has disclosed in a statement the Sharif family’s misdeeds and the transfer of funds abroad and the purchase of assets overseas?
  2. Isn’t it a fact that between 1988 and 1991, an amount of Rs 56.896 million was sent out of the country?
  3. Wouldn`t you admit that during 1988, $7,580,000 were remitted from the Bank of Oman, Sharjah to the Bank of Oman, Lahore and against this money Foreign Exchange Bearer Certificates (FEBC) worth Rs 145.06 million were distributed among close relatives/members/partners of your family?
  4. Isn`t it true that during the period of 1988 and 1991, money laundering of Rs 145.056 million was done by you and your family, while you paying only Rs 897 as Income Tax, therefore, it is obvious that the objectives of sending money through Hawala/Hundi Operation were:
  5. To avoid inquiry/investigation of FEBC, money trail in and out of Pakistan and to whiten the black money of Sharif family as the source of illegal money cannot be investigated because when someone buys FEBCs, the money used in purchase of FEBC is termed as “white”. Resultantly, the buyers of FEBCs could evade Income Tax & Wealth Taxes as FEBCs are not treated as taxable and the purchaser(s) of FEBCs succeed to earn high rates of interest on FEBCs and subsequently to transfer/launder this amount abroad easily.
  6. Isn`t it true that the FEBC was purposely introduced by your government in your first tenure as prime minister so that the laundered money should not be questioned and the prime objective of introducing FEBC was to benefit your family businesses and your partners/associates/accomplices?

iii.            Isn`t it true that due to your personal direction on the FEBCs Scheme huge loss to the national exchequer has been caused and it provided a “Legal Cover” to the corrupt mafia, tax evaders/tax thieves and to those who could accumulate huge assets through unfair means.

 

  1. MONEY LAUNDERING OF AMOUNT RS 145,056 MILLION THROUGH ILLEGAL HAWALA/HUNDI MEANS BY NAWAZ SHARIF’S FAMILY:
  2. Isn`t it true that Khaista Khan and Jamshed Khan, the Hawala/Hundi dealers from Peshawar, were engaged by you and your family to siphon large amounts of funds of your family through bank accounts of the dealers located in Peshawar?
  3. Isn`t it a fact that according to your first cousin Khlaid Siraj, initially an amount of over Rs 140 million was transferred to Bank of Oman, Sharjah from Pakistan through Hawala/Hundi and later the same amount was credited to Shamrock Consulting Corporation in its Allied Bank Stock Exchange London Branch?
  4. Wouldn`t you agree that the said amount was used in the purchase of Park Lane Apartments during 1993-96?
  5. Isn`t it correct that the above mentioned money was sent from Pakistan to the Bank of Oman in the United Arab Emirates, and elsewhere and the same money was used for converting it into foreign exchange currency and then repatriated through remittances in the name of 43 Sharif family members (which include your brother, sister, mother, sister-in-law and children of various ages) as per the details given below?;

He is nephew of Ishaq Dar, who formerly worked for the Sharif family company Ittefaq Brothers Limited and is now Finance Minister in the Cabinet of Prime Minister Mian Nawaz Sharif).
  2. A sum of $750,000 was also transferred to the account of Kashif Masood Qazi from a fake account at Habib Bank AG Zurich in the name of Mohammad Ramzan.
  3. A further amount of $500,000 was transferred to the account of Kashif Masood Qazi from the account of Nuzhat Gohar Qazi, who is sister of Ishaq Dar, at the same branch of Bank of America.

Isn`t it true that the Handwriting analysis shows that the accounts were opened and operated by Javed Kayani and in total $2,000,000 was paid into the account of Kashif Masood Qazi and the money was used as collateral against a loan worth Rs 60 million obtained by Hudabiya Engineering Private Limited from the Bank of America?

Isn`t it true that the link between the Sulman Zia account, Kashif Masood Qazi and the Sharif family’s Hudabiya Engineering Company can be proven beyond any doubt?
  4. A copy of the opening form for the Mohammad Ramzan account number 202-120-106578 and a record of its activities shows, according to handwriting analysis, that the form was signed by Javed Kayani. Payments into the Mohammad Ramzan account include:

(i)            $200,000 in travelers cheques issued by the National Bank of Abu Dhabi on May 6, 1993

(ii)           $6,247,750 from Swiss Bank Corporation on September 20, 1993

  1. Isn`t it correct that bank records show that the account had previously received $1,300,000 in travelers cheques in October 1992 and against these details DBCs, worth $15 million were issued in favour of Mohammad Ramzan. $750,000 was transferred to the account of Kashif Masood Qazi at the Bank of America which is that of Finance Minister Ishaq Dar. Citibank, Karachi, later created a Rs 4,000,000 loan in favour of Hudabiya Paper Mills Limited against collateral held in the Sikandra Masood Qazi account and the link between Hudabiya Engineering owned by Sharif family and these account is beyond any doubt?
  2. Fake account of Asghar Ali: Handwriting evidence shows that the account 202-120-106585 in the name of Asghar Ali at Habib Bank AG Zurich, Lahore, was also opened by Javed Kayani. Identifiable paymenets into the Asghar Ali account include;
  3. $750,000 in travelers cheques from the National Bank of Abu Dhabi on October 4, 1992
  4. $500,000 in travelers cheques on October 8, 1992

iii.            $200,000 in travelers cheques on May 4, 1993

  1. $62,477 transferred from Swiss Banking Corporation on September 20, 1993
  2. Thus, at least $1,512,477 was remitted to the account, against which DBCs of $1,570,000 were raised.
  3. Is it correct that on February 10, 1993, a payment of $242,630 was made to Miss Sara Sheikh in New York. Isn`t it correct that she is the daughter of Sheikh Saeed. Isn`t it correct that On May 26, 1993 amounts in the form of DBCs were transferred to the account of Sikandra Masood Qazi at Citibank to form part of collateral for the loan to Hudabiya Paper Mills to the tune of Rs 40 million?

 

  1. TRANSFERRING OF HUGE AMOUNTS OF LAUNDERED MONEY INTO OFFSHORE ACCOUNTS
  2. Isn`t it correct that according to official documents submitted by Hassan Nawaz Sharif’s Flagship Investments Management Ltd, the company only had £5,118 whereas its net loss was £1.514 million, but contrary to this financial statement, Hassan Nawaz remitted $3.836 million in 2013-14? The breakup of these remittances is as follows:

Year         Amount in Millions

2013        $ 1.9147

2014        $ 1.922291

2015        $ 2.170

 

Hassan Nawaz’s Remittance to Nawaz Sharif

Year         Cash at Bank and in Hand      Liabilities

2013        191          551,147

2014        3,733       436,053

2015        1,194       527,090

 

  1. Isn`t it true that as per financial declarations of Hassan Nawaz, his company’s net liabilities are exceeding that of its profits but in reality, a huge amount of £42.5 million (Rs 6.375 billion) was lent to purchase properties at 1-Hyde Park, London, UK and this amount forms part of the laundered amount from Pakistan obtained and accumulated through malfeasance, undue influence and corrupt practices?

 

  1. OSTENSIBLE/BENAMI PROPERTIES/COMPANIES OF NAWAZ SHARIF AND HIS FAMILY.
  2. Isn`t it correct that during your five tenures of public office, you and your family members also purchased the following property worth billions of rupees:
  3. 1 Hyde Park, London, UK dated: 30-03-2016 Amount £ 42.5 million

VII.           MISAPPROPRIATION OF $30 MILLION LOAN FACILITY FROM FAYSAL BANK

  1. Isn’t it true that Ramzan Sugar Mill, owned by your family, obtained $30 million from Faysal Bank in 1990 during your first tenure as PM by misusing your official power and this loan was obtained by asserting undue influence and intimidation of the top management of the Bank?
  2. Wouldn’t you agree that the said loan was obtained on the Chandron Jersey Pvt Ltd and subsequently was fraudulently transferred and used for another mill namely Chaudhry Sugar Mill under your directorship?
  3. Isn’t it a fact that you as the director of Chaudhry Sugar Mill, in sheer violation of banking regulations, used your undue influence to shift the liabilities with regards to loan facility worth $30 million to the worthless and non-capital paper company?
  4. Won’t you admit that this sheer violation of the loan facility was taken against prevalent laws of the country and falls within the exclusively cognizable jurisdiction of the National Accountability Bureau?
