Bashir Memon appointed as PML-N Sindh president
- PML-N made announcement via a notification.
- Memon joined PML-N on September 29 this year.
- He served as DG FIA from during Imran Khan’s tenure as PM.
The former director-general of the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) Bashir Memon has been appointed as the Sindh president of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), the party said in a statement on Tuesday.
The Shehbaz Sharif-led party has made this crucial organisational change, by opting for the former bureaucrat for the top provincial position. Meanwhile, Shah Muhammad Shah the incumbent provincial chief has been elevated as the party’s vice president.
“In exercise of powers conferred to President, PML-N under article 13(b) of the Constitution of the party, President PML-N is pleased to nominate Mr Bashir Memon as Provincial President of Pakistan Muslim League-N Sindh with immediate effect,” the PML-N mentioned in its notification released today.
Earlier after Memon joined the party, he was made the convenor of its Sindh reception committee, which was formed and tasked to welcome PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif on October 21.
The ex-government servant, who worked for the FIA from October 2018 to April 2020, joined the PML-N on September 29 this year.
The ex-FIA chief was earlier appointed convener of the PML-N Sindh’s 12-member committee constituted by the party’s Senior Vice President Maryam Nawaz for welcoming Nawaz Sharif on his homecoming next month.
It is pertinent to mention that Memon was accused of facilitating a suspect wanted for financial crimes overseas and for failing to investigate the person’s money laundering allegations. However, the sessions court acquitted the former FIA head in April last year.
Separately, the former cop — during an interview with a private news channel in October 2022 — confirmed the claims made by a hacker that he was locked in a washroom on the then-prime minister, Imran Khan’s directive and pressurised to follow his orders.
Memon, responding to the claims, confirmed the details, alleging that the former premier used abusive language for PML-N leader Maryam Nawaz, which infuriated him and he responded harshly.
The then-principal secretary of PM, Azam Khan grabbed his hand, took him out of the room and locked him in the washroom, he added.
