    ‘May Allah give a good damaad to everyone as he gave to Nawaz Sharif in my form’: Capt Safdar

    
    

    Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Captain (Capt) Safdar while conversing with reports was asked what did he give his daughter-in-law Ayesha, to which he said he wished his daughter-in-law good health and well-being.

    “Just as Allah has given a good wife to my son, I pray he gives it to all, and may Allah give a good damaad (son-in-law) to all the daughters as Allah has given to Nawaz Sharif in my form,” said Capt Safdar.

    Talking about his son Junaid Safdar’s wedding, Capt Safdar said, “If I had sung a song at Junaid’s wedding, then maybe all the fun would have been ruined. I have been singing my wedding song for 30 years, I will sing my son’s wedding song for the next three years.”

    Capt Safdar even hinted at Junaid ultimately joining politics and said, “Just as a lawyer’s son is a lawyer, a doctor’s son is a doctor, so he is a politician’s son and will definitely enter politics.”

    Actor Ali Safina was asked on Geo News‘ special Pakistan Super League (PSL) transmission as to who would be a better ghar daamaad (live-in son-in-law). Anchorperson Shahzad Iqbal asked the ‘Chupke Chupke’ actor who would he choose as a better ghar daamaad: Minister of Information and Broadcasting Fawad Chaudhry, Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairperson Bilawal Bhutto, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Captain (r) Muhammad Safdar, Faisal Sabzwari of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) and PML-N’s Talal Chaudhry.

    Ali voted for Captain (r) Safdar, who is married to Maryam Nawaz. “Safdar sahab already has the elements of a ghar daamaad in him”.

    Shahzad added to Ali’s stance saying, ” Safdar sahab embodies this element very positively.”

    Shahzad Iqbal played a clip of Safdar, where he says, “Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari is like a brother to me while his father Asif Ali Zardari is the life-long president of the son-in-law’s union. I am the general secretary.”

  • Six cases against Malik Riaz’s son-in-law dropped after payment of Rs9.5 billion

    Six cases against Malik Riaz’s son-in-law dropped after payment of Rs9.5 billion

    Zain Malik, the son-in-law of property tycoon Malik Riaz, has been acquitted by an accountability court in six cases pertaining to fake accounts after he pledged to pay Rs9.5 billion in plea bargain, Dawn reported.

    The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) submitted a schedule of payment to the accountability court.

    Accountability Court judge Mohammad Bashir took up applications of Mr Malik seeking acquittal in three under-trial cases and approved them.

    Zain undertook to mortgage his six properties and pay Rs4 billion in one case, Rs170 million in another and Rs37 million in the third case to NAB, Rawalpindi Directorate, in three years. He will pay the amount in instalments in three months’ interval.

    He joined the court’s proceeding through a video link from the UK.

    When the judge asked Zain whether he knew consequences of acquittal through the plea bargain, he replied in the affirmative.

    The acquittal under the plea bargain did not absolve the accused from the case as the conviction stands despite acquittal.

    He is accused in the fake accounts cases of Pink Residency, Illegal Allotment and Mega Money Laundering. He is also an accused in the Icon Tower case of Karachi and has to formally plead in the accountability court in this case for acquittal under the plea bargain.
