I, Syed Jamaluddin, do hereby solemnly affirm as under:
RE: MR. YOUNIS HABIB´S CLAIM OF PAYING MONEY TO MIAN NAWAZ SHARIF
1. That I was FINANCIAL CONSULTANT of M/S TARIQ SULTAN AND COMPANY during 1990-91. The said company (TARIQ SULTAN AND COMPANY) was owned by one Mr. Majid Sultan Khwaja. The said company was registered in Peshawar and had regional office at Marriot Road Karachi in 1990-91. Later, the said regional office was shifted to PECHS Karachi during 1992;
2. Mr. Majid Sultan Khwaja was a very close friend of Mian Nawaz Sharif (Leader of the then Pakistan Muslim League);
3. M/S TARIQ SULTAN AND COMPANY was responsible to handle all imports of scrap from different parts of the world including United Arab Emirates and certain other countries in the Middle East for ITTEFAQ FOUNDRIES owned by Mian Nawaz Sharif and his family (commonly known as SHARIF BROTHERS). This arrangement of importation was primarily organized to safeguard financial interests of ITTEFAQ FOUNDRIES in terms of taxation and excise duties / government levies etc;
4. M/S TARIQ SULTAN AND COMPANY was also responsible to issue INVOICES in the name of ITTEFAQ FOUNDRIES with very minute profit margin (just for the sake of giving such sales transactions a cosmetic touch). Almost 50% of such transactions were not documented and M/S TARIQ SULTAN AND COMPANY used to send the scrap shipments to ITTEFAQ FOUNDRIES apparently without any charge;
5. In recognition of such illegal services (i.e. undocumented sales to ITTEFAQ FOUNDRIES) provided by Mr. Majid Sultan Khwaja (CEO of M/S TARIQ SULTAN AND COMPANY) to ITTEFAQ FOUNDRIES, he (Majid Sultan Khwaja) was granted ticket of SENATE OF PAKISTAN and he (Majid Sultan Khwaja) became Senator during the premiership of Mian Nawaz Sharif;
6. During the first tenure of Benazir Bhutto as prime minister, she ordered not to allow one shipping vessel loaded with scrap to reach Karachi port. Due to this specific order, the said shipping vessel which was loaded with scrap worth Rs. 3.5 Million (or little more) was stranded in the waters. The reason for this order was basically because of the fact that the loaded scrap was in the name of M/S TARIQ SULTAN AND COMPANY and Benazir Bhutto was informed that the said company (i.e. TARIQ SULTAN AND COMPANY) was actually a FRONT COMPANY of Mian Nawaz Sharif;
7. In retaliation to this arbitrary decision of Benazir Bhutto, Mian Nawaz Sharif started publishing daily advertisements in many newspapers in Pakistan showing day-to-day counting of days such shipping vessel remained stranded in the waters and was not allowed any berth at the Karachi port;
8. After almost a month or so, the said matter was finally resolved and the said shipping vessel was allowed to reach Karachi port;
9. At that time, Mr. Majid Sultan Khwaja informed me that Mian Nawaz Sharif was very much annoyed with Benazir Bhutto and her husband Asif Zardari due to this act of stopping the scrap ship in the waters and therefore pledged to "teach a historic lesson" to the couple (i.e. Mr. and Mrs. Asif Zardari);
10. Later, Mian Nawaz Sharif had announced TEHREEK-E-NIJAAT against Benazir Government. This announcement was organized at the residence of Mr. Majid Sultan Khwaja situated at KDA Scheme 1 (Karachi);
11. It was at that time that Pakistan´s intelligence agencies DID distribute money among all political parties including Pakistan Muslim League and MQM to combat PPP and depriving PPP from any potential victory in the elections;
12. At this juncture, I had a discussion with Mr. Majid Sultan Khwaja on various issues including the decision of Benazir Bhutto to economically victimize Mian Nawaz Sharif. Mr. Majid Sultan Khwaja categorically said that Mian Nawaz Sharif DID receive funds from certain intelligence agencies BUT not for funding any anti-PPP campaign but as a COMPENSATION of loss caused by Benazir´s order to obstruct shipping vessel in the waters loaded with scrap for ITTEFAQ FOUNDRIES;
13. Mr. Majid Sultan Khwaja is still alive and can be contacted to verify the above-mentioned fact;
14. In reality, Mian Nawaz Sharif had collected many crores from Pakistan´s intelligence agencies as also mentioned to me by Malik Meraj Khalid during 1997 when I was serving as DIRECTOR PROJECT PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT at RURAL DEVELOPMENT FOUNDATION OF PAKISTAN (Islamabad). Malik Meraj Khalid was Chairman of the said Foundation. In October 1997, Malik Meraj Khalid had become Caretaker Prime Minister of Pakistan. I had opportunity to discuss lots of things with Malik Meraj Khalid at RDF CENTRE situated at G-9/1, Islamabad;
15. Malik Meraj Khalid revealed some alarming facts such as follows:
a) that Nawaz Sharif was a puppet of Pakistan´s intelligence agencies and he (Nawaz Sharif) had agreed to act as an OBEDIENT SERVANT of the intelligence agencies in order to get rid of Benazir Bhutto and Asif Ali Zardari thereby eliminating them from Pakistan´s political scenario;
b) that Nawaz Sharif was given many crores by Pakistan´s intelligence agencies in order to buy certain political parties to create hurdles for PPP from gaining majority in the next elections;
c) that Nawaz Sharif was given a specific task to use "all methods of political victimization" against PPP and Benazir Bhutto so much so that Benazir Bhutto should either leave Pakistan forever or retire from politics on voluntary basis;
d) that Nawaz Sharif was ready not to interrupt or question Pakistan´s intelligence agencies in their Pakistan-based operations as well as operations in India, Afghanistan (Taliban) and China;
e) that Nawaz Sharif was a WAHABI and therefore he was "MORE TRUSTWORTHY THAN BENAZIR BEING A SHIA";
f) that Nawaz Sharif would not interfer in the nuclear programme and rather allow all means to make sure that Pakistan becomes a nuclear power;
g) that Nawaz Sharif would NEVER SIGN NON-PROLIFERATION TREATY (NPT) or CTBT (Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty);
h) that Nawaz Sharif will not question sources of income of military establishment or initiate any investigation in the buying of military equipment worth billions of dollars;
i) that Nawaz Sharif would keep silence on involvement of Pakistan´s intelligence agencies in their secret plans of converting Chinese province of Xinjiang into an Islamic state on Taliban pattern in connivance of TABLIGHI JAMAT;
RE: PAYMENT OF MONEY TO ALTAF HUSSAIN
1. Altaf Hussain DID receive money through the then Chief Minister Sindh Jam Sadiq Ali at ABBASI SHAHEED HOSPITAL. Not only this, Jam Sadiq Ali also gifted a bungalow worth Rs. 6 Million (Sixty lakhs) to Saleem Shahzad (MQM activist and right hand of Altaf Hussain) on his marriage;
2. Afaq Ahmad was also paid money in recognition of his services but Altaf Hussain was not happy about this payment so much so that two rival groups (Altaf Group and Afaq Group) came into existence / emerged within MQM-Karachi. There was some physical fight and weapons used as well. Consequently, Altaf Hussain was shot in his leg by members of Afaq Group. Altaf Hussain was admitted to ABBASI SHAHEED HOSPITAL Nazimabad (Paposhnagar). Due to this incident, MQM activists from Hyderabad Sindh were deputed for the security and safeguard of Altaf Hussain at the ABBASI SHAHEED HOSPITAL. When Jam Sadiq Ali came to know about this incident, he rushed to ABBASI SHAHEED HOSPITAL and gave some lakhs to Altaf Hussain which he (Jam Sadiq) had brought in a black color briefcase for the reason that Altaf Hussain´s life was in danger and he was rather stranded in the hospital for security reasons. In this hospital meeting, Jam Sadiq Ali informed Altaf Hussain that Afaq Ahmed was paid many lakhs by ISI to create MQM-Haqiqi in order to divide MQM and get rid of Altaf Hussain;
3. On hearing this important information from Jam Sadiq Ali, Altaf Hussain begged Jam Sadiq Ali to arrange his (Altaf Hussain´s) exit from Pakistan as immediately as possible. Jam Sadiq Ali who had already become a close friend of Altaf Hussain promised and later arranged a passport which was used by Altaf Hussain to escape from Pakistan. Initially, it was decided that Altaf Hussain should reach either India or Afghanistan but this idea was rejected by Altaf Hussain as he (Altaf Hussain) considered both India and Afghanistan as " NOT SAFE ENOUGH". Hence, a passport was arranged which was in the name of a Pakistani who was a UK resident. The photo on the passport of its real owner was replaced by Altaf Hussain. Altaf Hussain later flew to London by using the said passport. Altaf Hussain had grown his beard and put on glasses while his hair were cut too short (like a Pathan). This was done to avoid any mishap at the Karachi airport although Jam Sadiq Ali had provided all possible protection to Altaf Hussain at the time of his departure;
4. More important and significant aspect of this story is that Altaf Hussain HAD NOT TRUSTED even Azeem Ahmed Tariq (Chairman of MQM) and had categorically requested Jam Sadiq Ali NOT TO INFORM Azeem Ahmed Tariq because Altaf Hussain had considered Azeem Tariq as a potential successor in case he (Altaf Hussain) was assassinated by Afaq Group;
5. Dr. Imran Farooq was a very close aide of both Altaf Hussain and Azeem Tariq. Dr. Imran Farooq had some concrete knowledge about the murder of Azeem Tariq and therefore Dr. Imran Farooq was recently removed from the MQM´s political stage by Altaf Hussain simply for the reason that he (Dr. Imran Farooq) was witness to many "mistakes" committed by Altaf Hussain and his (Dr. Imran Farooq´s) existence was considered as a THREAT by Altaf Hussain and equally by Saleem Shahzad;
