SANGHAR, Dec 24 The Sanghar Federation of Commerce and Trade denied allegations levelled by a commission agent against their organisation at a press conference here on Wednesday.

Federation`s President Sufi Abdul Haq and other office-bearers said that Munir Arain, a commission agent, had breached the trust by resorting to fraud and dishonesty in business deals.

There were many complaints against him and many a time he was reprimanded to follow ethics. They accused him of patronising criminals. They conceded of imposing at him, business boycott not social as it was against the spirit of Federation.

They said that he faced business boycott because of his dishonesty but Mr Munir was exaggerating facts by accusing that barbers, medical stores and milkmen were not providing him or his children their services.

This was total fabrication while business community maintains the business boycott with him because of his own faults, they said.
