ISLAMABAD: Formal federal minister for finance and revenue Shaukat Tarin on Friday said removal of Pakistan from the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) grey list was yet another feather in cap of Pakistan Tehreek e Insaf (PTI) leader and former minister for economic affairs Hammad Azhar.

Shaukat Tarin asked that why former prime minister Imran Khan’s government was toppled, despite the PTI government’s handling every crisis deftly.

“After producing strong economic results in the last two years, successfully managing Covid and now the FATF, the question is why was Imran Khan’s govt changed?” he asked.

Meanwhile, Hammad Azhar said Pakistan’s hard work on completion of 34 action items during last three years was a result of teamwork of officers that worked day and night in different government departments.

Sharing a picture of the people who worked with him during the PTI government’s tenure, he wrote, “They are the real heroes!”

“As per FATF procedure, an onsite visit is conducted before removing a jurisdiction from grey listing,” he relayed.

Former information minister Fawad Chaudhry said when the PTI took over the government, it found Pakistan in the FATF grey list, along with the economic catastrophe.

“Imran Khan assigned the task of removing Pakistan from the FATF to Hamad Azhar. Then all the relevant federal and provincial institutes were made part of the task force, through whose efforts the action plan is complete now,” he wrote.

تحریک انصاف نے حکومت سنبھالی تو معاشی تباہی کے ساتھ ہمیں پاکستان FATF لسٹ میں ملا، عمران خان نے حماد اظہر کو پاکستان کو FATF سے نکالنے کا ٹاسک سونپا اور تمام وفاقی اور صوبائ اداروں متعلقہ ادارے اس ٹاسک فورس کے رکن بنائے گئے بھرپور کوششوں کی نتیجے میں ایکشن پلان مکمل ہو گیا ہے https://www.bolnews.com/pakistan/2022/06/credit-of-pakistans-removal-from-fatf-grey-list-goes-to-hammad-azhar/amp/
