London: Broadsheet Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Kaveh Moussavi has suggested removal of Adviser to Prime Minister on Accountability Shahzad Akbar from office.

While talking to media in London, Moussavi said that he revealed transfer of one billion dollars four years ago, but nothing has been done so far.

“When we were in talks with government of Pakistan, Shahzad Akbar contacted us and we had a meeting with him. He [Shahzad Akbar] asked very irrelevant questions in the meeting. I was stunned when he asked for his share,” Moussavi said adding that the adviser was not serious in the investigation.

Responding to a journalist’s question, CEO Broadsheet said, “National Accountability Bureau (NAB) of Pakistan should be asked why they didn’t investigate the matter even after we alerted them.”

Moussavi further said that idiots are part of every government and urged Prime Minister Imran Khan to remove his ‘idiot minister’.

“It has happened often that whenever we were close to finding secretly transferred money, the people who had transferred that money were informed by Pakistani government resulting in them taking the action before us,” he said.

He further said that NAB should compensate for the losses suffered by Broadsheet.

It should be noted that Kaveh Moussavi is the head of Broadsheet, a British firm that recently won a lawsuit of more than 28 million dollars against Pakistan in a British court.

During the tenure of former President General (Retd.) Pervez Musharraf in 2000, Broadsheet was hired to trace the assets of at least 200 Pakistanis in Britain and United States (US). Later, the government of Pakistan cancelled the contract with Broadsheet.

Broadsheet had accused NAB of terminating the contract in 2003. The company also filed a 600 million dollars lawsuit, with NAB claiming that it was 340 million dollars.
