Several leaders of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf are allegedly involved in billions of rupees of corruption in sugar mills mafia case. According to details, the Federal Investigation Agency has unearthed major evidence in the sugar mill mafia corruption worth Rs 14.23 billion. Sources have claimed that during the last two years, almost 3 to 5 percent of cuts have been made in the purchase of sugarcane from farmers. In this regard, sources claimed that the names of PTI leaders and government officials are among those who have given permission for sugarcane cuts. Earlier, PML-N president and Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Shahbaz Sharif in a statement alleged that the PTI government was the ‘culprit’ behind the sugar crisis. The opposition leader said “the corrupt hoard of self-enrichment driven PTI gang first exported sugar to make money and create a shortage and is now importing sugar to mint billions off people’s misery.” The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz leader further alleged that Imran oversaw this mega corruption to ensure his ATMs get thoroughly loaded to later serve him with their ill-gotten wealth from corruption. In his regard, head of the committee and former Punjab Food Minister Sami Ullah Chaudhry said the cuts were allowed in accordance with the law. “The FIA Lahore and the Cane Commissioner’s Office had already acquired us for details and we have already replied,” he added. Samiullah Chaudhry assured that he would give an explanation to FIA regarding the cuts, while the decision was taken by the committee after a detailed discussion. Minister for Industry and Commerce Mian Aslam Iqbal said that the committee did not do anything illegal.
