KARACHI: A Sindh government officer was found involved in selling donated ration and blankets belonging to the flood victims in local markets.
The heinous crime was unearthed by Team Sar-e-Aam during a sting operation. The Team Sar-e-Aam purchased ration bags and blankets provided by the Sindh government to the flood victims from Deputy Commissioner’s (DC) House in Mirpur Khas.
A mukhtiarkar (revenue officer) namely Qayyum Leghari was allegedly caught selling the blankets for the flood affectees in Mirpur Khas. The Team Sar-e-Aam spent millions to purchase the government’s ration bags during the sting operation to expose the criminal activities of the government officers.
After Team Sar-e-Aam provided evidence to the local authorities, DC Zainul Abideen took immediate action and the accused mukhtiarkar was arrested following his orders.
