PUNISHMENT: The Multan Electric Power Company (Mepco) Bahawalnagar Superintendent Engineer Saifullah Soorani has been suspended from service for corruption.
A committee has been set up to probe the charges against him. Mepco CEO Muhammad Akram Chaudhry received a complaint that the electricity connection of a mill was disconnected against rules and bribe was being demanded to restore the connection.
The CEO ordered to restore the connection immediately but the SE did not do it and filed a report of restoration of the connection.
The mill owner once again filed a complaint saying that the SE was demanding Rs1 million to restore the connection.
The CEO, on the second complaint, suspended the SE and ordered an inquiry against him. The committee is headed by Mepco Chief Engineer Abdul Aziz Niazi and the director admin.
