LAHORE: The Anti-Corruption Establishment (ACE) on Friday summoned National Assembly Standing Committee on Finance former chairman Faizullah Kamoka on April 10 in a corruption probe.
According to the ACE, Faizullah Kamoka caused a loss of over Rs400 million to the Parks and Horticulture Authority, Faisalabad. During his tenure, Mr Kamoka colluded with officials to commit corruption.
“He was promoting business by installing 100 LED poles on Harianwala Road and Susan Road in Faisalabad without a contract for five years,” it said, adding he extorted millions of rupees from people through illegal advertising business and did not deposit any money in the treasury for government contracts.
Each LED contract is different as per Parks and Horticulture Authority rules, it said.
