Let Spock answer this
I am surprised about raid on K&K because they are darling of corrupts as corrupts use them to transfer their ill-gotten wealth abroad. Two most notorious and world renowned mega corrupts, Zardari on driving seat and Nawaz holding the tail of Zardari with his mouth, I would not have expected this to happen. The reason I believe could have been that army must have pushed that to happen.
I guess the anger is because MQM haven’t got what they were looking for in the federal ministry.. anyway i’ll not go in details as it is not relevant…and ur frustration is well understood
On the other hand, according to news I heard, Nawaz and his cronies were playing a major role in transferring wealth from Pakistan and trying to destabilise Pakistani economy. Now, since I only heard that (and even though it was not a lie), I did not put that in my post because I had no reference … though if I was propagandist, I would have put that in my post regardless.
There is a saying which means that, its enough for you to be a liar that u spread news without checking the source. with all the bias u have towards PML (N) no news from un-disclosed source of yours is acceptable.

Anyhow, just imagine that K&K was taken to task on Saturday (8th Nov 2008) … Though I did not quoted a news that I read (not just heard but read) … Still, if I felt that the raid on K&K is somewhat connected with the News published in ‘GEO’ a day earlier (on Friday 7th Nov 2008) about Ganja Nawaz transferring money from Pakistan and keeping them abroad, than I do not think that it is my fault to link them together.
Again please provide the news source of NS transferring the funds from Pakistan to abroad. if it is on GEO, it must be on other news sites as well, please share it, otherwise these are baseless allegation or bias of a particular political group.
[Note: Whatever dollars Nawaz, Zardari and most Pakistani politicians already have abroad are money transferred from Pakistan, as none of these thugs worked abroad, neither their source of income is from outside Pakistan]
I agree, but we are talking about the current crisis, that is after Feburary 08.
Raid News from Jang: Local moneychanger reportedly arrested in Karachi Local moneychanger reportedly arrested in Karachi
KARACHI: The owner of local money Exchange Company Munaf Kalia has been arrested reportedly here on Saturday, sources said … … …
**News on Nawaz from GEO … part of Jang: **Though impact of news was diluted by mixing it with appointment of Shamshad Akhter, still news is clear. As for appointment of Shamshad Akhter, the post she was appointed (Governor State Bank) do not get advertised, so allegation on Musharraf is ridiculous. On the other hand, it is also possible that Shamshad Akhter was appointed with consultation of all major political parties, because even though PML(Q) was in office, what I believe, Shamshad Akhter from interior Sindh, internationally known economist/banker, was close to PPP leadership, plus her appointment plays a vital role in bringing capable women of Pakistan in front seat. Here is the news about Nawaz, a day earlier than the raid on K&K:
No connection with my query
IHC issues notices to Musharraf, Nawaz and Shamshad Akhter IHC issues notices to Musharraf, Nawaz and Shamshad Akhter - GEO.tv
ISLAMABAD: Islamabad High Court (IHC) has issued notices to former president Pervez Musharraf, PML-N Quaid Mian Nawaz Sharif, sitting governor state bank of Pakistan and 9 others on a petition filed against the appointment of governor state bank Shamshad Akhtar.
At the inception of the hearing petitioner barrister Javed Iqbal Jaffri took the ground principle of merit was ignored by the former president Pervez Musharraf in the appointment of governor state bank.
Barrister Javed Iqbal contended the post was not even advertised in the news papers and governor state bank was appointed at the behest of former president Pervez Musharraf and the nation was suffering heavily in the wake of this appointment.
He argued Mian Nawaz Sharif sold out his steel mill in Saudi Arabia at the cost of billion of rupees and he transferred this amount to his offshore accounts. If he transfers all his assets to Pakistan then we will not need to extend hands before others, he added. Therefore Mian Nawaz Sharif be asked under what law he had transferred this money to foreign accounts, he submitted.
The court has sought reply from governor state bank, federal secretary, chief executive officer Khushali Bank, Islamabad, former president Pervez Musharraf and PML-N Quaid Mian Nawaz Sharif within two weeks.
Court also remarked wealth held by Mian Nawaz Sharif in foreign countries be brought back to Pakistan.
[From above news, it seems that Nawaz Shareef sold his steel mill in Saudi Arabia and received his money in rupees that he transferred it abroad from Pakistan, thus causing flight of capital … as that capital was in Pakistan belonging to whoever he sold his ‘Saudi Steel Mill’… plus obviously, all asset of this Thug, Nawaz Shareef, originate from Pakistan and that is a separate issue that if it originate from Pakistan, how he has billions of dollars abroad].

How come NS can sell his steel mill in Saudi and that is in Rupees, it was asset out of Pakistan and it was sold out of Pakistan, can you tell me the share of NS in this mill, where they holding all the 100% stakes in the mill or they had other partners/investors as well. ( given the case, IN KSA it is highly unlikely to have a business of your own, specially if you are non-saudi)
The above news source has nothing which proves that NS have transferred money out of Pakistan from Feb 08 to now.
