Malik Riaz : Backdoor Channel Between PML(N) and PPP
By Ghazala Khan • Mar 24th, 2009 • Category: Politics • 13 CommentsIf you are in Islamabad/Rawalpindi and have ever tried to purchase a property in any colony, it is quite highly unlikely that you haven’t come across the name of Malik Riaz, who was once a petty government employee, then a contractor and now a real estate tycoon in the twin cities and even beyond.
Whether it is the Bahria Town or Defence Housing Scheme, or whether it is any sector in the Islamabad or any land in the Murree area, every spot carries the stamp of Malik Riaz. His dubious past speaks volumes about the way the man has amassed a fortune and how he has managed to get through all the governments. He appeared on the horizon in the twilight of Ziaul Haq era and the Ijazul Haq, the son of military dictator Ziaul Haq was his first beneficiary and then Malik Riaz never looked back.
From Benazir Bhutto to Nawaz Sharif to Zardari, Malik Riaz has kept everyone happy and satisfied. His blessing not only encompass the politicos but also has its reach to the bureaucracy and the top officers in the establishment. He has got a fine and unique knack of giving plots in the precious locations to the right people at the right time.
Nowadays this Malik Riaz has become nose-hair of Asif Ali Zardari of Pakistan and doing all the backdoor work. The amazing thing is that this man has now been assigned the task of reconciliation between Zardari and Nawaz Sharif and he has been doing it for the past week. The current equation is that Zardari is ready to restore the Shahbaz Sharif government in Punjab with both Sharif brothers eligible, if and only if NRO matter is not disturbed.
And yes, this Malik Riaz has also got his clout in the media and what’s more he has got his own newspaper which goes with the name of ‘jinnah’. Many journalists like Khushnood Ali Khan, Zia Shahid and host of others are in his pocket.
Deep Pockets can do wonders anywhere, anytime in any circumstances.

Ghazala, for stolen money one needs ‘deep pockets’ I would think for experience tells that hard earned money is, usually, guarded honestly and not spent on gangsterism and gangsters like the ones you have mentioned above. As far as Malik Riaz’s efforts to mediate between Zardari and Sharifs for reconciliation is concerned, who else do you consider better qualified. Traditionally, in a gang war between two ‘mafia families’, it is always another ‘mobster’ who plays this role for reconciliation. Don’t you agree?
Hi ghazala,
These guys will go to any length to protect their turf. Take care.

these guys are actually acted as protectors of white collars criminals in our establishment.He raised his status from ordinary job in military regime and now called as DON of land mafia.He is on same status where once seth abid was placed .He did his best to curtail lawyer’s movement owing to his serious personal grudges against Ch ifitkhar who legally blocked his unlawful housing projects on the basis of destroying environment and lives of poor people of villages .No doubt his housing schemes are one of international standards in Pakistan and his private organization Bharia town made example of good management among our typical housing schemes but the way he achieved all this by pleasing few greedy generals( mostly accommodated in his schemes by granting them huge lands on throw away prices)has made his position very suspicious .
It was symbol of shame of whole nation when he appointed sebha musharf wife of COAS and our president as chairperson of bahria town in UK and US circles for its marketing .After seeing palaces of ihtisham zameer, amjad shoaib, jamshed kiyani late (all generals helped musharf to sustain his unlawful regime), it is easy to comprehend the moral and ethical values of our soldiers now that were once considered as the symbol of shame and dishonor for uniform working men
His recent love affair with our notorious business minded president is now an open book and he displayed his photos along with zardari in all his offices to impress the poor guys.His gait clearly reveals that now he is entering in field of politics for getting top seat.

Let Jamshed Gulzar (Kayani!) rest in peace and hope that all the rest of those, who spoke ill of the President of Pakistan SYED Pervaiz Musharraf and told and still tell lies against this SYED Badshah,
are also soon ‘blessed’ by the Almighty,the ‘eternal rest’ in the good company of the Jamshed Gulzar (the Kayani!). The Almighty, who is the ultimate ‘Qahar’ and ‘Jabbar’ (Qahar is translated as “the Prevailer, the One Who Prevails.” and Jabbar is “the Compeller.).
These are the qualities of our all time preacher and alims of Pakistan not missed a single chance of cursing, abusing the people who dare to disagree with their theoretical concepts.We all had to die but as per Allah’s will.if these were in hands of narrow minded alims on line then nobody can save the mass killings of ordinary people on our streets.As we all had to die but our deeds/words leave imprints of our doing/saying and we are only remembered and recognized by these acts.
O’ Almighty, who is the ultimate ‘Qahar’ and ‘Jabbar’ (Qahar is translated as “the Prevailer, the One Who Prevails.” and Jabbar is “the Compeller.) please, take away, all the haters and abusers of SYED Pervaiz Musharraf, and help them ease out and take eternal rest in the company of good Jamshed Gulzar (of course! Kayani) - Aamen!

“The current equation is that Zardari is ready to restore the Shahbaz Sharif government in Punjab with both Sharif brothers eligible, if and only if NRO matter is not disturbed.”
Isn’t it for the court to decide if Sharifs are eligible or not, if Punjab govt. needs to be restored or not, if NRO needs to be touched or not??? If its not then where is the “dream” of “free judiciary” after reinstatement of CJ Iftikhar?
If such matters are still to be “decided” among the politicians to suit their own needs then what was the fuss about “free judiciary”?
NRO may not be challenged by Sharief brothers however if some common citizen challenge it then wht be the situation?- It is to be noted that it has already challenged by Dr Mubashir Hassan in CJ Ifthikhar court
I happily appreciate hearing your voice so strong and well. It has been with great concern for your well-being and that of your Family and Colleagues, that I have sought to confirm your safe survival of recent earthquakes. You are doing such a good work, and I am gladdened to see that you continue with your mantra’s worthy theme.

I know people who are orphan and malik riaz has grabbed their land.I think that we people should give zakat ,sadqahs,kherat to malik riaz because his greediness may come to end and he deserves alms.Now he is looking like an orphan because his father Musharraf regime has come to an end and he wants to make zardari as his father
