Mohalenyane Phakela
FORMER Home Affairs Minister, Tsukutlane Au, says he revoked the residence permit of the controversial Rana Qamar in 2017. Mr Qamar is a Pakistani currently at the centre of a drug and human trafficking storm.
Mr Au said Mr Qamar fled the country in 2017 upon learning of the moves to revoke his permit and only resurfaced in the country last year after the advent of the current governing coalition anchored by the All Basotho Convention (ABC) and Democratic Congress (DC).
Mr Qamar is currently in his home country after again fleeing the country last year in the wake of allegations linking him to an elaborate criminal web of drug and human trafficking activities, allegedly with the connivance of senior government officials.

CONTROVERSIAL Pakistani national, Rama Qamar, who has been accused of human trafficking alongside some senior government officials, could also have been involved in the equally heinous crime of drug trafficking, the
Lesotho Times has learnt.
Mr Qamar’s alleged criminality prompted His Majesty King Letsie III’s Senior Private Secretary (SPS), Monehela Posholi, to implore the police to probe the controversial Pakistani because he was allegedly selling drugs to, among others, National University of Lesotho (NUL) students putting their futures at stake. But nothing seems to have been done by the police, then under the control of former Prime Minister Thomas Thabane’s coalition.
