Ajman: Halloween is round the corner. The Celts who lived across the lands we now know as Britain, Ireland and northern France believed that it is this time when the souls of the departed return to Earth and become visible to mankind.
But for Pakistani businessman Chaudhary Hayyab Arif Kamboh, the worlds of the living and the dead have remained blurred since July 19, 2017. That’s the day he ‘died’ in a road accident in Sharjah only to spring back to life in Ajman two years later.
MQM mourns death
Hayyab’s untimely death was even mourned by Pakistani political party Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) which described him as an ‘ideological worker.’
“RIP Chaudhary Hayyab Arif Kamboh bhai. Our deepest condolences to the family of this ideological worker of MQM from Lahore who passed away on July 19th in a tragic road accident in UAE,” MQM Television said in its official Facebook page on July 21, 2017. “May Allah grant him highest level in heaven and give his grieved family enough courage to bear their loss,” added the social media post. It was accompanied by a photo collage of the deceased. One picture showed Hayyab Arif lying dead with cotton balls plugged in his nostrils and a white burial shroud wrapped around his body.

Dubai: A foodstuff company behind a scam exposed by Gulf News last year now finds itself in the dock. The Ajman-based Soha Arif Foodstuff Trading has been ordered by a Dubai court to pay over Dh470,000 to export company Madhav Impex heaquartered in India.
Shouq Al Kathiri, lawyer for Madhav Impex, said they have started execution procedures against Soha Arif Foodstuff after its owner failed to respond to the court summons and notices published in local newspapers asking them comply with the court order within 15 days. Madhav Impex, located in the western Indian state of Gujarat, supplied 12 containers of onions worth $100,000 (Dh367,300) in August last year.
They were promised payment within 24 hours of delivery but never got paid. Nearly 50 exporters were similarly tricked into shipping tonnes of food material worth millions of dirhams to Soha Arif, owned by Pakistani Mian Zaryab, and H&MZ Global Worldwide belonging to his elder brother, Chaudhary Arif Hayyab Kamboh, who famously faked his death around three years ago. In fact, H&MZ Global Worldwide was launched by Hayyab almost 14 months after he was reportedly ‘killed’ in the purported road accident in Sharjah on July 19, 2017. His untimely ‘demise’ was mourned by many.
MQM Television, which claims to represent Pakistan political party Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM), even extended condolences to the family of the deceased in a Facebook post two days later, praying that their “ideological worker” be granted the highest place in heaven. The post was accompanied by a picture of Hayyab Arif lying dead with cotton balls plugged in his nostrils and a white burial shroud wrapped around his body.
