..Pak chief of army staff, meaning he pulls the strings on the Nawaz Sharif puppet to make it dance and sing and not do much at all....
dismissed six army officers, including two generals, from service over alleged corruption, an authoritative source confirmed on Thursday.
Earlier media reports said 12 officers, including some JCOs, were dismissed, but the source said that this was mere speculation.
However,
a hangover is the wrath of grapes...
no one from the military's media wing was willing to confirm any of these figures on record.
A lieutenant general, major general and three brigadiers are said to be among those dismissed from service, said an intelligence official speaking to DawnNews on condition of anonymity.
The dismissed officers have reportedly served with the Frontier Corps
...a provincial paramilitary force. Total manpower is about 80,000. They are tasked to help local law enforcement in the maintenance of law and order, and to carry out border patrol and anti-smuggling operations....
(FC) Balochistan
...the Pak province bordering Kandahar and Uruzgun provinces in Afghanistan and Sistan Baluchistan in Iran. Its native Baloch propulation is being displaced by Pashtuns and Punjabis and they aren't happy about it...
and were charged for corruption during their service with the paramilitary force.
The others dismissed were junior commission officers who worked with those named above, said the intelligence official.
Following the investigation conducted by then Adjutant Gen Zubair Mahmood Hayat on the orders of the army chief, the charged officers were asked to return all earnings accumulated through corruption, the official said, adding that all perks and privileges had been withdrawn from the officers except their pensions.
Lt Gen Obaidullah also served as IG FC from 2010-2013, after which Maj Gen Ejaz Shahid was appointed IG FC, intelligence sources said.
There has been no official confirmation regarding the move.
The development comes two days after the COAS said "across the board accountability is necessary for the solidarity, integrity and prosperity of Pakistain", adding that the war against terror cannot be won unless "the menace of corruption is uprooted".
