Hamesh Khan, who worked as a financial analyst for the U.S. Agriculture Department until January, is expected to admit today during a hearing in U.S. District Court in Alexandria that there is sufficient evidence to bring charges against him in a scheme to defraud the Bank of Punjab, which he headed.

With its profusion of languages, ethnic groups and regional diversities, with its unique caste system, with its contrast between information technology and industry billionaires and the nearly 300 million people who live below the poverty line, with its mixture of Mahatma Gandhi's nonviolent philosophy and outbreaks of savage communal violence, and with its success as a parliamentary democracy despite having 400 million people who cannot read or write, India remains a bewilderingly complex country. A powerful moral leader as well as a wily politician, Gandhi wanted Indians to be proud of their past, to wear Indian rather than foreign dress, to challenge their colonial overlords through peaceful protest and noncooperation and not through violence, and to eliminate discrimination against...

A naturalized U.S. citizen named in a $10 million bank fraud scheme in his native country of Pakistan faces torture or assassination if the United States does not resist a pending extradition request, his attorney says in an appeal to the U.S. State Department that charges the case lacks evidence and is politically motivated.
Pointing to official bank audits, statements, board minutes and court documents, lawyer Stuart Sears said this week in a letter to State Department legal adviser Patricia McDonough that his client, former Bank of Punjab President Hamesh Khan, actually took steps to protect the bank.
