Money in Swiss Banks

A section of National press has reported that according to a Director of Swiss bank Pakistan has 97 billion dollars in Swiss banks. Such a huge amount if used for welfare of Pakistan could enable Pakistan to have a tax free budget for 30 years. Among other things Pakistan could create 60 million new jobs and there would be no need to seek IMF and World Bank loans. The above news exposes our politicians to the charge of laundering their ill-gotten money to deposit in Swiss Banks. Efforts should be made to retrieve these billions of dollars snatched from the mouth of millions of poverty stricken people of Pakistan. The looters must be made to pay for the huge amount of public money pilfered for deposit in Swiss banks. Dr. Muhammad Yaqoob Bhatti, Lahore, September20.
