ISLAMABAD: Along with all the other challenging tasks left to him by his predecessor, army chief General Raheel Sharif will also have to complete the much-publicised inquiry that is pending into allegations of financial mismanagement committed within the National Logistics Cell (NLC) between 2004 and 2008, estimated to have resulted in losses to the tune of Rs2 billion.

The ministry of defence recently conveyed to the new public accounts committee (PAC) of the National Assembly that because of the change of command, the matter was still under investigation and that the outcome would be furnished in the due course of time. Syed Khursheed Shah of PPP, who heads the PAC, sought the information from the ministry of defence.

The just-concluded session of the National Assembly was also informed in writing by the law division that “the PAC has directed the secretary, ministry of defence, on Jan 8, 2014, vide its letter No. F.1(43)/ 2012-PAC-Imp (P&D) to provide the record” related to the NLC case.

Earlier, in February 2009, the public accounts committee of the National Assembly as it was then constituted was informed about the suspicions of financial mismanagement. Subsequently, four different inquiry committees held five former senior officials of the NLC — three retired military generals and two civilians — responsible.

Lt-Generals (retired) Khalid Munir Khan and Mohammad Afzal Muzzafar served as officers in charge of the NLC from January 2005 to June 2005 and from June 2005 to October 2008 respectively; Maj-Gen (retd) Khalid Zaheer Akhtar was the director general of the NLC between July 2002 and January 2008; Najibur Rehman was the director, finance and accounts, from October 2002 to April 2007; and Saeedur Rehman worked as the chief finance officer from June 2004 to October 2008.

As was first reported to the PAC by the auditor general of Pakistan and then confirmed by other inquiry committees ordered by Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan, the then chairman of the PAC, the five are said to have invested Rs4.3bn in the stock exchange. The investment was made in violation of government rules and resulted in the loss to the entity.

During a PAC meeting held in June, 2010, committee members were informed that because of the faulty investment in the stock exchange, for which its former bosses borrowed heavily from banks at high rates of interest, the NLC had to bear a loss of Rs2.7 million on a daily basis on account of interest.

Allegedly, the five men not just borrowed money from commercial banks on high interest rates but also invested pensioners’ money in the risky business of the stock market. They are thought to have received commissions from companies through which the money was invested.

When the former PAC chairman Ch Nisar was about to make the committee’s final recommendations, in November 2010 the then army chief Gen Ashfaq Parvez Kayani decided to conduct an inquiry at the level of the army. As a legal requirement for the military’s court of inquiry, the three retired generals were taken back into active service.

After endlessly waiting for the findings of the court of inquiry set up by the army, former PAC chairman and by then incumbent interior minister Ch Nisar recommended disciplinary action, including the registration of cases against all the five former officials. The PAC also asked the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) to carry out further investigations to determine individual liability.

NAB couldn’t make any progress because the entire record of the earlier investigations was with the ministry of defence.

Following the PAC recommendation, in July 2011 NAB wrote letters to the director general of the NLC, the staff duties directorate of the GHQ, the director operations of the NLC, the judge advocate general department, GHQ, the adjutant general branch, GHQ, and the secretary of defence for the provision of the record, but to no avail. Nobody was available for comment from the ISPR.

Yet another corruption case in NLC

NAB begins probe into graft charges against ex-general Ahsan Saleem Hayat

ISLAMABAD: The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has initiated proceedings against retired four-star general Ahsan Saleem Hayat and senior officers of the National Logistics Cell (NLC) on a complaint filed by an ex-major who had served in the same organisation.

Ex-Major Akram Raza had in 2015 filed a petition in the Lahore High Court, claiming that a number of military officers had been dismissed from service for running an illegal crude oil business that caused a loss of Rs20 million per day to the national exchequer. He was seeking his arrears and amount of the fine imposed on him by the military authorities.

According to documents attached with the petition, 17 individuals, including two lieutenant colonels, three majors, six soldiers of varying ranks and four civilians, were among those found guilty of embezzling oil and dismissed by the military authorities on Jan 26, 2005 for running an “illegal crude oil business”.

Major Raza had claimed that he was not part of the group of individuals who were dismissed, but the one who had actually pointed out the “theft and illegal sale” of crude oil and was arrested and detained for no reason.

In his petition, the ex-major said he got an FIR registered against the people involved in the scam, but the NLC administration kept on pressurising him to “cooperate with the crude oil mafia and on refusal was threatened [with] dire consequences”.

He has filed the complaint before the NAB chairman.

During the hearing on his petition on Sept 25, 2019, an LHC bench comprising Justice Shahid Mehmood Abbasi and Justice Tariq Abbasi directed NAB to proceed on the complaint in accordance with the law.

The ex-major was represented by counsel Inam-ur-Rahiem before the LHC.

It may be mentioned that the Islamabad High Court, while taking up a contempt of court petition against NAB for not proceeding against former army chief retired Gen Pervez Musharraf in connection with a complaint against his alleged corruption, directed the anti-graft watchdog to dispel the impression of witch-hunting of the politicians only.

NAB had last month informed Mr Raza about scrutiny of his complaint. As per a letter issued by the bureau, the complaint has been referred to the directorate concerned.

In his complaint, the ex-major stated that he had served in Transport Battalion of NLC in Karachi as 2nd-in-command from December 2001 to January 2004 and then remained in the custody of different agencies till Feb 27, 2006.

He said he had informed then director general of NLC Maj Gen Khalid Zaheer Akhtar about the presence of the “crude oil mafia” as well as massive embezzlement in the purchase of 100 Hino buses, but ended up being placed under arrest and detained.

Gen Akhtar was one of the three NLC general officers who were found guilty of involvement in the NLC scam.

According to the complaint, the matter was taken up by Gen Ahsan Saleem Hayat, the then corps commander of Karachi, but to no avail. Gen Hayat, on the other hand after becoming the vice chief of army staff, approved his dismissal from service and also imposed a fine of Rs293,000 on him, said the ex-major.

He requested the NAB chairman to proceed against Gen Hayat and other NLC officers who had caused billions of rupees of losses to the national exchequer.
