ISLAMABAD: Pakistan's top audit body has implicated former premier Yousuf Raza Gilani in a case of alleged misuse of taxpayers' money for purchasing vehicles worth Rs 190 million.

The Auditor General of Pakistan's report, covering fiscal 2011-12 and tabled by the federal government in the National Assembly, states the cars were brought for alleged distribution among voters of Gilani's Pakistan People's Party.

It stated that Gilani had ordered the Industries Ministry to buy the vehicles.

The irregularities and "unauthorised" purchases will be discussed by the Public Accounts Committee, The Express Tribune reported today.

The Industries Ministry handed over 200 auto-rickshaws and about 20 mini-buses and pick-up trucks bought with taxpayers' money to former Information Minister Firdous Ashiq Awan, former PPP lawmaker Nabil Gabol and to some unfamiliar Karachi-based NGOs, the media report said.

The current Auditor General, Akhtar Buland Rana, was appointed by Gilani himself.

This asshole was the worst. People from his office were coming out reporting his scams and of his sons. His son's abduction was a scam, too.
