As the meeting was held in the hall at the Economic Affairs Division, a thorough search was conducted and employees were searched but it was not until seeing the CCTV footage the offender was known.

“An internal inquiry was in progress against the bureaucrat and further action would be taken keeping in view its recommendations,” a Dawn report added.

Pakistanis enthusiastically weighed in on the incident:

Imran Khan-led government is going all out to get extra cash. Nothing is off limits!

This is not just a theft… This is a crime against the whole nation. He has totally damaged the reputation of Pakistanis abroad. Even Pakistani labourers and taxi drivers in the GCC countries have a reputation of honesty. This man has shamed us all. Deserves severe punishment.

Personality disorder, surely. How many of such sick people move around us living in an unreal world of their own minds? It’s our normality… https://t.co/c69yZic061

He should be dismissed from service and his pension should be forfeited.

This man has embarrassed the entire country.

Bureaucracy is rotten, full ot political appointments and cronies. Operation cleanup required, across the board.

For this thief who has humiliated the country, state should publicly expose and punish him.

Worst degeneration of character and values that a grade 20 officer stoops so low to steal some thing of a foreign dignitary! We need to pause and think what has led to this kind depravity among us. It was bound to happen among people raised on foreign values, language and cultur
