LONDON : Senior Adviser to the Prime Minister on Interior Affairs Rehman Malik arrived here on Monday on a surprise visit to apologise to the British authorities for an alleged visa scandal, Daily Times has learnt.



[color="#FF0000"]The visit was unscheduled and was planned last minute as no officials from the Presidency and the Prime Minister’s House were aware of it. A source privy to the visit said Malik would meet the British officials and would apologise in this regard. He would also brief them about investigation into the alleged visa scandal. Source said that British intelligence agency MI6 had already started an investigation in this regard. The Olympics squad from Pakistan is being monitored by security officials. President Asif Zardari and Prime Minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf had ordered Malik to visit Britain and assure the British authorities that Pakistan would take all possible measures to bring culprits to justice.[/color]



Talking to Daily Times, President Zardari’s spokesman Farhatullah Babar said, “It is a serious issue and should be dealt on priority basis." When asked about Rehman Malik's visit to the UK, Babar said, "I'm unaware of his visit. He [Rehman Malik] had a meeting with President Zardari in Karachi. They might have discussed this issue but I don't know anything about it."



The Sun has claimed that President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf personally ordered Rehman Malik to arrest the criminals behind the Olympics visa racket. In its latest report, The Sun said, "An aide said [color="#FF0000"]Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf and President Asif Ali Zardari were appalled after we exposed corrupt officials offering potential terrorists the chance to sneak into Britain with the Pakistani Olympic squad."[/color]
