Every one knows that Shahzada Alam Malik owns all the Warid/Wateen franchises in Rawalpindi by using his influance at those private companies. An investigation should be launched to look at how much loss the government had because of Mr. Malik.

@ Mansoor Niaz,
Yes mansoor, you are right! i am doing an investigation report regarding Mr. Malik, in which i will discuss many rong doings by him with proofs. Yes these ppl should not be left alone like this… they should be questioned about things which they did bad… not only after their service, but during service period too. If you want to share any information (to help my story), then please contact me at aamir7 [at] gmail.com

Dear Attaa
I wish u to go beyond pulling down a person. I would be on ur side if u also extend ur work for evolving a system
in which there is a self regulating mechanism embedded wherein culprits are automatically imparted retardation and ultimately get kicked off from a position (dont ask me if we are able to raise the implementers —- let others take care and share SAWAAB).
Malik Sb has been a sacred cow. He may now be untouchable.
There are so many zillions of wrongs done and are being done that we may end up exhausted and totally spent.
Any way, still I wish u Good Luck, my friend.
