Qadri gives names of 50 ‘Indian agents’ working in Sharifs’ sugar mills

LAHORE: Pakistan Awami Tehrik (PAT) chief Dr Tahirul Qadri on Friday released the first list of 50 names out of the total 300 alleged Indian agents working and living in the sugar mills owned by the Sharif family.

These Indian agents entered Pakistan on visas of engineers, technicians, IT experts, welders and other workers, and the list included their passport numbers also, he told a press conference.

He said over 300 letters requesting for visas to Indian nationals were sent to Pakistani High Commission in Delhi from Ramzan Sugar Mills with the instructions that the visitors should be exempted from otherwise due conditions of security clearance and police report, etc. Qadri alleged that after the Sharifs came to power in 2013, the annual money transfer from Pakistan to India rose to Rs470 billion, and added that he would soon release the second list of Indian agents working with the Sharif family.

He said the Sharif family did not refute the revelations he had made during his public meeting on September 3, which amounted to silent admission of guilt. He alleged that entire record of very important projects was deliberately set on fire to erase the proofs of corruption, like it happened with the records of Metro bus, LDA plaza and Nandipur power project and Ramzan Sugar Mills etc, where Indian agents had been working for past many years. Qadri demanded that members of the Sharif family should be arrested to prevent further setting ablaze the record of other important projects alleged of massive corruption. Qadri asked state institutions that if they wanted to protect terrorists or save Pakistan, adding terrorists must be eliminated whether they were in Karachi, Sindh, Waziristan or in Punjab. Other PAT leaders Khurram Nawaz Gandapur, Basharat Jaspal, Noorullah Siddique, Shahzad Naqvi, Sajid Bhatti and others were also present.
