Data Darbar Cleric Found Guilty of Stealing Donation Money

The former Data Darbar khateeb, Mufti Muhammad Ramzan Sialvi, has been found guilty of stealing donation money, according to an inquiry conducted by Punjab’s Auqaf Department. The departmental inquiry, under the Punjab Employees Efficiency, Discipline and Accountability (PEEDA) Act, determined that allegations of financial misconduct, embezzlement, and forgery against Sialvi were proven.

However, the department did not specify whether the embezzled funds originated from donations. Following the inquiry, the Auqaf Department has taken disciplinary action against Sialvi, demoting him from his BS-19 service grade to BS-18 for a period of five years. Additionally, he has been barred from positions in Lahore and its surrounding areas during this time, and his appointment as zonal khateeb in Dera Ghazi Khan has been ordered.

Sialvi has also been barred from future postings at any major shrine or mosque. The departmental inquiry concluded following the announcement of the findings.
