QUETTA: The Balochistan Anti-Corruption Establishment has arrested a Communication and Works (C&W) Department employee, Ziaullah, for embezzling millions of rupees in a major crackdown on corruption.
A team led by Deputy Director Investigation Kamran Bashir and Assistant Director Investigation Abdul Qayyum apprehended the accused on the orders of DG Anti-Corruption Wahid Kakar. The investigation revealed that funds allocated for a 100-acre park in Spin Karez during the 2021-22 fiscal year were released, but the project does not exist.
Authorities are also searching for other suspects, including XCN Khair Bakhsh Ansari, who remains at large. This operation underscores the Balochistan government’s commitment to eliminating corruption and ensuring accountability.
