Legal Assistance to the Corrupt
In a press conference the Director FIA Karachi produced a senior
official of the Education department who confessed to have had 21 members of
his family as ghost employees in his department including his 64 year old
mother in law and his demised father whose pension was still being drawn by the
family.
Naturally, he would be soon tried by a court of law and the kind of millions
he has he would be able to engage the best and smartest legal brains of Karachi
to defend him. I wonder if there would be even ONE black coat who would not
take up his brief on the moral grounds of not defending an established felon ?!
If our legal brains keep defending such known corrupt culprits then how
can we eliminate corruption from Pakistan.
