LARKANA, June 19: Accusing Dokri Taluka Nazim Shafqat Unnar of massive corruption, nine of the 13 members of the Dokri taluka council have said that they will move a no-confidence motion against him.

Talking to journalists here on Tuesday, Taluka Naib Nazim Bashir Ahmed Junejo, Imdad Ali Joyo, Zarina Soomro and others alleged that the taluka nazim had got the record of accounts section of the taluka council burnt on Sunday night to conceal his corruption.

They said that since the inception of the council, the taluka nazim had been acting unilaterally like a typical landlord without taking the council members into confidence.

They alleged that the nazim had received Rs10 million kickback on a project of 71 shops, shown development works on papers and usurped funds for them.

They said that sensing a no-trust move against him in the council, the taluka nazim proceeded on four-month leave but had to return after the Sindh High Court curtailed the leave period. Then he got the record burnt to conceal his misdeeds, they said.

A letter regarding his corruption had been sent to the Sindh Local Government Commission and proofs would be submitted before the inquiry committee, they said.

The members of the taluka council Qurban Ali Sargani, Ghulam Hussain Solangi, Nawal Mal Oad and Mohammad Ali Junejo were present on the occasion.

Meanwhile, the Dokri police on the compliant of night watchman of the taluka council have booked Dilawar Abro, Shahzado Mirbahar, Abdul Waheed Abro, Muzaffar Unnar and Ali Gohar Mangi for burning the record.
