Nawaz Sharif is ousted, and his children would face a trial. This is something like suddenly electrons formed the nucleus and proton began to revolve around it. A shock that still holds the Pakistani politics into vibration.

While the people speculated about disqualification due to London Flats, the Hon’ble Supreme Court of Pakistan took notice of Nawaz Sharif’s Work-Permit and his undrawn salary, which wasn’t listed into the nomination papers.

But, is this as simple as it seems to be? Why disqualification over a work-permit? And over undrawn salary?

Well, it is not that simple, an undrawn amount is still your amount, its simply in another pocket. If such amount that you legally possess, is not mentioned in the nomination forms then it is a lying on the forms and is an offense. It also concludes to dishonesty and not-so-good intentions which places you in violation of Article 62 and 63 of the Constitution of Pakistan.

Furthermore, suppose you have a business firm, and an income tax team approaches your door, they audit your assets, and your company’s as well.

The audit team shall find your cash account with surplus amount, and income tax team shall find your personal account with missing money trail and both, your business venture and your personal self, will land into problems.

If your papers don’t even mention that you’re working somewhere and it is found out that you’ve some covert means of money gathering (I won’t term it money laundering right now), you’ll definitely land in island with oceans around.

A third perspective and even more dangerous is, since you’re residing in another country, you’ll have bank accounts there. You can smuggle your assets in that country or use that country as gathering point of all money laundering. Either way, due to legal complications, sovereignty of other nation, your bank records are not easily available to even the government(s) you’ve cheated; and for most of time it may even remain invisible to various species of eyes.

This puts such a person into darkness, and hence is a federal offense, if the money laundering is too much or transaction in such manner that puts the state of Pakistan at risk of any damage, you’ve committed a High Treason and Article 6 applies to you.

For the last point, I have used the word “perspective” because we don’t yet know how much amount was sent illegally and was it public money looted misusing power or private money teleported offshore.

This is my opinion on the matter.

If you disagree, you’ve all the rights to do so, why not correct me if I am wrong?
