Admiral (r) Mansurul Haq passed away on Wednesday after a cardiac arrest at the age of 81 at his home in the US. Mansur was a former four-star rank admiral in the Pakistan Navy who was forcefully retired from his post in 1997 over his alleged involvement in the Agosta Kickback case. His case attracted subsequent media attention after his extradition from the US by the joint teams of FIA and NAB, and was arrested to face accountability. However, Haq was later released after successfully negotiating a plea bargain. The former naval official passed away on February 21, while his family was in Dubai.
