DECISIONS /
3.0 STAFF MATTER
APPROVALS

Misappropriation of Cash
President & Hon Secretary informed the following
matter to the members of MC.

3.1  On 15 Aug, Hon Secretary (JHK) brought this


matter in my (AYT) knowledge that the cash is
short deposited then I (AYT) and JHK started to
find out the matter of cash shortage and as the
case was still in process to be resolved. After 3 or
4 days, Mr Muhammad Imran, Chief Cashier
called me (AYT) and requested that he wanted to

PAGE 2 OF 22
15TH MC MEETING
1ST SEPTEMBER 2012

meet somewhere outside the club with me (AYT)


and JHK. JHK added that when AYT informed
him that he wants to meet us somewhere out of
the Club, I (JHK) immediately said that he wants
to inform about the amount which is short. As we
were curious to know the matter so I (AYT) and
JHK decided to call him (Imran) at my office at
Beaumont Road where he came and confessed
that this cash is taken by him (Imran) and cited a
story that he started cash misappropriation since
last year Sep/ Oct 2011 and approx Rs600,000/-
out of Rs752,100/- were taken for personnel use
before 31 Dec 2011 and said that “I am willing to
repay the money”, when I (AYT) asked how? He
replied that I have some retirement benefit ie
Gratuity & Provident Fund. After calculating all
the above benefits it makes the total of
Rs450,000/-, leave encashment of Rs26,000/-
and Prize Bond of Rs 40,000/- now the
remaining balance is left around Rs 174,000/-
which he (Imran) has promised to return before
30 Sep 2012 and requested for some time
relaxation for refund of short deposited amount,
in his written confession letter dated 1 Sep 2012.

3.2  JHK informed that cash misappropriation had


also been taken twice in past while the system of
physical cash verification was exists and same
were not recovered. By grace of Allha this time the
misappropriated cash is almost recovered.

3.3  The actual details of recoverable and received


amount is as follows:-

Misappropriated Cash Rs 755,140/-


Provident Fund-Net Rs 221,272/-
Gratuity 280,192/-
August Salary 29,211/-
September Salary 26,211/-
Leave encashment 11-12 26,279/-
One prize bond 40,000/-
Total recovery Rs 623,165/-
Remaining Recoverable Rs 131,975/-

3.4 IS raised a question that we receive a daily cash


receipt, isn’t there any procedure to follow the daily
cash count? on which AYT replied that there is no
procedure of daily cash count and informed that in
2008 when he (AYT) was a Hon Secretary and in

PAGE 3 OF 22
15TH MC MEETING
1ST SEPTEMBER 2012

2011 Mr Arif and in 2003 Mr Jawaid were Finance


Convener that time there used to be a procedure for
daily cash count but since last year our Chief
Accountant (Naseem Ahmed) resigned this procedure
was not followed which he (AYT) is not sure of why,
but even in presence of Mr. Naseem (CA) this theft
took place.

3.5 AG raised a question that “how did we come to know


of this theft” on replied AYT replied that during the
physical cash count for yearly Audit which takes
place on 30 June, Cash Ledger and Physical Cash
count was not matching. AG questions that till 30
Jun 2011 that cash count was perfectly fine, but
after this our cash count was not done practically on
daily basis and our CA was also not aware of it which
means if the amount would be Rs 14 Lacs still we
wouldn’t be aware of it which shows our weakness
too. JHK replied that “we are straight forward and we
are up and front, we are not hiding anything and this
is not the first time it has happened, lot of amount
was stolen in the past by staff but previous MCs
never took any action nor they managed to recover
the amount but we at least recovered, I (JHK) want
that this issue to be handled in transparent manner,
is that the major flaw is the system because as the
head of finance we are the policy maker”.

3.6 FC Statement: “Before, I start I accepted my


mistake that I over looked all this but there are
reasons why this had happened. When I joined the
Club in Mar 2011, and there were two cashers and
soon after my appointment I was asked casher Mr
Adil was transferred to Annxe as a Manager and
asked me to either do the cash handling myself or
depute some one for it and I was given two days time
to settle this. Since I was not provided with any
substitute cashier, I wrote a letter in June 2011 to
the Hon. Secretary, Mr. M Yousuf Suleman, stating a
request to change the designation of “Accounts
Clerk” to “Accounts Clerk-cum-Cashier” to assign the
cash handling responsibility to some specific
individual but it was not finalized till to date. Hon
Secretary interviewed some individuals in Jul 2011
two ACCA were inducted for Main Club & Annex
instead of Accounts Assistant/Cashier, One cashier
was appointed for Main Club who left after a few
days. In Feb/Mar 2012 another individual out of four
candidates was selected but he did not join the Club,

PAGE 4 OF 22
15TH MC MEETING
1ST SEPTEMBER 2012

then Mr Yaseen was appointed in Apr 2012. Since


the Chief Cashier has accepted that he
misappropriated the cash and ready to repay the
cash I hope MC may accept my apology.”

3.7 SAD raised the question, who were the two people
use to sign the cash daily? In our tenure
Rs152,000/- has been stolen Rs600,000/- in last MC
tenure but the committee finance is being handled by
a Senior Banker since two years (two MC) and when
(IAS) as a Senior Banker seen that system of
counting cash is not there then why it was not
introduced. IAS replied that when he came in 2011
he asked to enforce Internal Audit System.

3.8 AG inquired that what should have policy in future,


AYT replied that to enforce the old system which he
explained briefly that, all the cash received should be
submitted and one hundred thousand should be in
the safe to meet any contingency and after all the
calculation remaining amount should be deposited in
the bank, cashier with one security guard will go to
the bank, deposit the cash and submit the deposit
slip in the accounts, one hundred thousand in the
safe can be used for IOU’s and other matters. Other
questions regarding purchases of stores,
maintenance, kitchen, and petty cash for which the
FC was instructed to sit with JHK and make the
limits for all the above.

3.9 IAS informed that it is an individual act which is


happened in the Club and it can be happened in any
organization throughout the world while well systems
and internal controllers are exits. The individual has
given confessed statement and ready to re-pay the
misappropriated amount. Further when I came as
Hon Treasurer to saw two Chief Accountant Mr
Naseem and Mr Mansoor and financial system, and
weakness of system are observed, thereafter, it is
suggested that internal audit system to be
implemented either outsources or appoint the
Internal Auditor in order to check/examine the each
& every transactions rather than only depend on
Finance Controller. Same has been informed to the
last year Hon Secretary and present Hon Secretary
but so for no action is taken. I (IAS) did not found
any type of cash verification since Jan 2011 (AYT
informed the house it was done in 2008 when I (AYT)
was Hon Secretary)and Fixed Assets which is also

PAGE 5 OF 22
15TH MC MEETING
1ST SEPTEMBER 2012

valuable like cash, are still un-reconciled since 1995


and it was decided in MC that a one point agenda
MC will be called on this issue. My duties are inform
the house which have be done several times and I
cannot implemented As well as concerned with Mr
Nisar’s responsibilities regarding to verification of
cash if it was done when the individual took the
charge, then he must be responsible for negligence
but there is no such type of procedure. Hence the
individual accepted and like practice in banking
sector, it is an individual act, therefore, the case to
be handled as individually and non of staff is
involved. In view of above it is once again strongly
recommended an Internal Audit system is to be
implemented either by outsourcing or appointing an
Internal Audit.

3.10 JHK informed the house that it is management


integrity to bring each and every fact into the notice
of MC. At times when we knew that we have
Rs450,000/- on his account, Prize bond of
Rs40,000/- is collected and recoverable amount is
just Rs250,000/- and it can be recovered by any
means but I discharged my responsibilities by
recorded the misappropriation cash. I would like
informed the house that some time we got approve
some event/purchases by resolution and we have to
pay cash on request of MC member because we have
no option other than to entertained the request for
smooth club functioning.

3.11 MAM informed that IAS is right but there is no


specific weakness is highlighted. The cash collections
must but be deposited into banks a basic principal of
accounts/finance which is basic flaw and for this
purpose no Internal Audit is required. AYT is
suggested that without approval of MC/Hon
Secretary no cash payment is authorized.
It is agreed that all cash collection to be deposited
into bank on next day and maintained the all record
of IOU and daily statement is prepared.

3.12 AYT informed the house that Internal Audit is just


over see the compliance and all and very thing is
covered into the Account Manual and if the account
manual is implemented in true sprit then no flaw or
deficiency is happened.

3.13 FAS raised a question that why not the handing

PAGE 6 OF 22
15TH MC MEETING
1ST SEPTEMBER 2012

taking over( cash verification) is carried out in Jan


2012 when we took charge as MC members and
now we have no option other than to accept the
statement of cashier that mostly misappropriation
was done in last year and mainly it is the
responsibility of FC. Further he has reservation why
not the MC meeting is called immediately.
AYT replied that handing taking over should be
carried out at time when new MC members takes
responsibilities of the Club as custodian but it was
not happened in so many years. On 15 Aug, Hon
Secretary (JHK) brought this matter in my (AYT)
knowledge that the cash is short deposited then I
(AYT) and JHK started to find out the matter of cash
shortage and as the case was still in process to be
resolved and final figures to be put up for at formal
stage, however, informally all MC members are
informed by the JHK.

3.14 AJ shows full confidence on the three members (AYT,


JHK & IAS) for investing and resolve the matter in
efficient way.

3.15 IA appreciated that this matter was taken with care.


Further said that such types of cases are happened
throughout the world but by grace of Allah the
misappropriated cash is almost recovered and
suggested to make fool proof system and prevent it to
repeat again.

3.16 MAM suggested that we should ensure that this is


the correct figure of Rs752,000/- by taking the
complete statement of reconciliation to make the
comprehensive statement to ensure this figure is
correct and a monthly cash flow summary to be put
up to MC along with the monthly accounts.

3.17 IAN suggested and questioned that now a days


banks are also providing with a facility that banks
itself come and collect the cash so then why should
we send our cashier and guard along with cash on
which AYT replied that the rates which we are
getting on running account any other bank will A committee
cannot give. under the
chairmanship of

DECISIONS/
APPROVALS

5.0 Recitation from Holy Quran


Recited by IAS.

6.0 Finance Matters:

6.1 Misappropriation of Cash


IAS informed the house that some important points of
cash shortage, FAS enquiry regarding handing taking over
to MC and FC statement in my absence while I (IAS) went

PAGE 8 OF 22
15TH MC MEETING
1ST SEPTEMBER 2012

to Masjid for prayer. Mainly two points are most


important:

 There is no certainty of the date of this


misappropriation, it cannot be determined the date,
he (Imran) said Sep/Oct, Yaseen has made the
statement that he had checked the cash in the first
week of May and while checking of the cash he
found that the cash is in-order how he made it we
don’t know. There is no record on earth that from
which date actually it was happened, legally,
Internationally the loss of cash on which date this
was found it will be counted from that date because
in previous date it cannot be proved that whether it
was Sep, Oct or May because cash is an item which
cannot be proved or changed so the date you cannot
presume that it is Sep and it is previous MC’s fault
because this incident is the cash fault incident and
it should be counted from the date when cash was
verified whether it is May, Jun, or Sep.

6.2  Secondly I (IAS) have checked the employee files of


all accounts department and I regret to inform the
house that except three people that is Nisar, Yaseen
and Zulqarnain, who are qualified graduate and all
other staff members are intermediate in grade “D”
and in “D” grade are not entitled to be appointed in
any organization, the system which we have got
from last year cannot be improved which is spoiled
since 25 years. Third most important fact is, in cash
department there should be at least 2 guarantors to
be obtained from new cashier and previously there
is no record in anyone’s file that where they have
worked (experience letters or NOC) and this
particular fellow (Imran) was appointed as a waiter
so I say that we management should realize our own
weaknesses and we should try to improve. The HR
policies are also week because there are no
documented policies and suggested AYT to improve
the system in his presence as we are representing
over 9000 members and our assets have increased
in billions so to terminate one person system will
not change but it will go on in the same manner.
AYT in response said that there is an ACCOUNTING
MANUAL in which the system is properly mentioned
but it wasn’t adhered by our educated employees
and since the time system became faulty since that
day it all has started, secondly as you (IAS) said
that the date of retraction should be taken as a date

PAGE 9 OF 22
15TH MC MEETING
1ST SEPTEMBER 2012

of crime, I (AYT) disagree because in the absence of


any reliable data, we have to take the date which
the criminal has confessed.

6.3 AYT informed the house that in past such type of cases
were happened and were not recorded. JHK informed that
in past membership was sold @ Rs 600,000/-and it was
adjusted in different accounts. This MC taken each and
every think on board and appropriate action has been
taken.

6.4 A committee is formed and chaired by IAS to check the


staff files, liquid assets policy and for employees and
committee’s members are MAM, SAD, AG and IA. Any two
available can review and take the decision. Further IAS is
requested by JHK to make and submitted the HR policy.
AYT suggested that we may appoint a MBA for HR
department.

6.5 HBL ATM:


The proposal of ATM installation has been approved by
the HBL. The MC suggested in the 8th MC meeting held
on 7th May 2012 that ATM machine will be placed in the
Sports Hall/complex, the same locations and veranda was
visited and was analyzed that it will not be a suitable
place in rainy weather condition. Now ATM machine is
being installed in Main Reception along with existing MCB
ATM.

6.6 Sindh Sales Tax:


It was decided in the last MC meeting that the case to be
followed with other clubs and following reservation is
approved without fee.

RESOLUTION:
“It is hereby resolved that the members of Karachi Club
have unanimously agreed to institute legal proceedings
before competent Court against the Sindh Sales Tax levied
on entrance fee, Membership Fee and Subscription
against the Circular # 1/2012 dt. 14 Feb’12, issued by
Sindh Revenue Board (SRB) Govt. of Sindh”.

Now DHA has informed that Barrister Khalid Javed is


asking for Rs. 3.00 M excluding documentation charges,
which will be divided among all clubs on the basis of
number of clubs/members of Clubs.
JHK informed the house that Hon Membership was

 Water Plant – Commercial supply:
It is observed that KC water plant contractor supply
water on commercial basis/bulk quantity, therefore,
club member waits for long time to get water. Same

 Mr Naeem Akhtar, P - 1883
7.5
AYT agreed and further stated that some members have
Noted for
also complained that they found dead insects in bottles
compliance.
for which, AYT called the meeting with the owner of the
plant and asked him to do 3 things. First that water
should be examined every month between 12th to 16th
by P.C.S.I.R. on their expenses. Secondly we will
introduce the slips (3 copies carbon slips one for
member, second for their record and third will be
submitted to the club and till he submit all slips of the

by the receiver that the water was received in fit,
hygienic and clean condition, third point that his plant
filter will be kept in KC store and whenever it will be
required to replace the filter one person from our store
will check and take the old filter.
Plant owner suggested that we should call a technical
person of the same line to show him the faults and also
the cost Rs 20/- of the water for members is very less it
should be increased a bit to avoid the commercial use.
