Mysterious fire in Lahore plaza may not be accidental: Sources

LAHORE – A ‘suspect fire’ erupted in multi-story building located on Lahore’ M.M Alam road.

CM Punjab Buzdar has summoned report from Punjab Inspector General of Police (IG) in 24 hours.

A multi-story shopping mall owned by former Punjab chief minister and Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) president Shebaz Sharif’s son-in-law Ali Imran on Saturday mysteriously caught fire killing one while injuring two others.

Office of Ali Trading Company is located on the same floor where blaze erupted. The record of agreement of Punjab Saaf Pani Company was also stashed on the same floor.

Media reports revealed important documents may have been burnt causing issues in the NAB inquiry.

Report have surfaced of suspicious activities inside the building ahead of the mysterious fire.

Ali Imran—who is facing anti-graft proceedings—hasn’t yet produced record of Punjab Saaf Pani Company and Punjab Power Development Company before National Accountability Bureau (NAB).

Earlier yesterday, an accountability court had declared Ali Imran ‘proclaimed absconder’. Shehbaz Sharif’s son-in-law is accused of receiving graft money from the CEO of the Punjab Power Development Company (PPDC) Ikram Naveed.
