Pakistani military authorities have constituted a court of inquiry to take action against three retired army generals found involved in mismanaging the funds of an army-run transport firm and causing losses of Rs 1.8 billion.
The Defence Ministry set up the court of inquiry following persistent demands from the Public Accounts Committee of parliament for action against the three former generals who had served in the National Logistics Cell (NLC). The move against the three officers was announced by Public Accounts Committee chairman Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan during a meeting of the panel yesterday. He described the development as a “proud moment”. Khan alleged that Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani had extended the service of a civilian who too was involved in the NLC scam.
