Pakistan's Federal Investigation Agency's (FIA) inquiry, on Wednesday, unravelled the sugar crisis that had hit the country last year.It has emerged that a Turkish firm, in connivance with a local firm, had used fake documents to receive the tender for the supply of sugar which ultimately resulted in its cancellation, as noted by Pakistan Today.Last year in April, the Trading Corporation of Pakistan (TCP) had issued tenders. The Turkish firm, Gemini Group, succeeded in receiving the tender by offering the lowest bid (USD 447 per metric ton).The firm was to supply 50,000 metric tonnes of sugar but the Bank of Punjab's (BoP) documents submitted by the Group to the TCP as guarantee were fake.According to the FIA officials, when the TCP learnt about the fake documents, it cancelled the tender and floated it for the second time which resulted in a colossal loss to the national exchequer.For the second time, the rate was fixed at USD 526 per metric ton.However, the agency swung into action and arrested Muhammad Abbas, the local company representative, following the registration of a case against both the local as well as Turkish companies, according to Pakistan Today.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
