Dollars, dollars, dollars: Ayyan wants to treat jail inmates to Sehri and Iftar
46
Ayyan's figured out this whole jail thing pretty quickly.
We don't know whether it's because she's been watching Sly Stallone movies or popular TV prison drama Orange is the New Black, but whatever the case, Ayyan seems to have decided that if she's going to be in jail she's may as well be Queen Bee.
How's she going to achieve this?
By plying her fellow inmates (and prison staff) with food until they're so satiated they won't notice she's ruling them with her well-manicured fist!
Just yesterday Ayyan submitted an application to Adiala Jail authorities, requesting that she be allowed to bear the expense of Iftar and Sehri for the whole month of Ramazan for all the prisoners and jail staff.
At present, Adiala jail houses around 4000 prisoners with an estimated staff of 1,000 people. Usually, people give donations during Ramazan to meet the expense of Sehri and Iftar for everyone in the prison.
This Ramazan Ayyan wants to be the magnanimous benefactor behind these meals.
Jail authorities have started to calculate the estimated expense, which is probably going to be pretty steep. Ayyan said she would hand the money over once the authorities are done with budget estimation. Ayyan's application has been sent to Home Secretary for approval, jail authorities said.
Ayan also said she plans to write a book and a play on life in jail after her release.

If it is with legal money ; well and good; but if with illegal money, must take permission from a religious scholar.From worldly point of view it is a good gesture. Charity in any form is a good deed.

This is mockery of the jail. Is she there on a picnic. Is she having a great time socializing in Jail...Jail is supposed to be a rectification mechanism for the prisoners...what is happening here suggests jail is not so bad a place incase you get on the wrong side of the law.
She should be treated the same as those other 4000 inmates get treated. Anyone found providing undue favors or services should form one of those 4000 inmates.

She should be treated same as any other inmate in the jail. She is trying to buy the law enforcement officials. At the end of the day, she will be set free. We will never find out her benefactors.

well, it is between her and her Almighty..
if it is just to show off (as it seems that she doing it for so called good will gesture), then it will stay useless..
and if it is in real for a charity thing, or to get some naikies or sawab, then it is good..
Rest if she does it by illegally earned money, again it falls flat..!
The God however, knows the best what is inside one's heart and the right and wrong!

Her Charity is something between her and GOD and the reward lies with GOD. Her crime is between her and State, if found guilty she should be punished as required by Law.

How much more painful can it be, that the persons because of whom the poorer has become more poor are offering ....food.... at the expense of the wonderful life that they have taken away from them...leaving them with no other opportunity but to become criminal or beggar...Alas!..

@Asif A. .... I would say that people like Ayaan (with a strong backing of a political party) have made this country misearble and they will never leave this country untill they suck
the last blood out of this country.
So no body is forcing them to stay in this country..They need this country to mint money.

This is simple case of bribing. Should not allowed as a prisoner is trying to buy favours through her money. This will jeopardize the whole judicial system and rich prisoners will always try to buy the jail.

4000 prisoners + 1000 staff they will pray that will stay whole life with them, they will get good food, Ayyan submitted an application to Adiala Jail authorities, requesting that she be allowed to bear the expense of Iftar and Sehri for the whole month of Ramazan for all the prisoners and jail staff. just amend application for whole life this $ 500,000 also sufficient for some times.

I don't think authorities will allow her to do that.
They will not like to set up a prescedent for any future rich prisoners who like to take advantage from the Jail staff.
In my humble opinion she should desist from doing that.
