July 31, 2025 (MLN): Moonis Alvi, Chief Executive Officer of K-Electric Limited, has issued a formal response to the recent ruling by the Provincial Ombudsman Sindh under the Protection Against Harassment of Women at the Workplace Act, expressing deep concern over the outcome and revealing his intention to contest the decision.

In a statement released on Thursday, Alvi described the verdict as “deeply distressing” and emphasized that the findings “do not reflect the truth of the situation as [he] experienced it.”

The Ombudsman had imposed a penalty of Rs2.5 million on the CEO following an investigation into a workplace harassment complaint.

Additionally, the Ombudsman ordered the removal of Syed Moonis Alvi from his position as Chief Executive Officer of K-Electric. 

“I have always upheld the values of integrity and dignity in professional interactions, and I deeply believe in fostering safe and inclusive workplaces for all,” Alvi said, while reiterating his commitment to due process and justice.

He acknowledged the personal and professional toll the situation has taken and confirmed that he is currently reviewing the decision with legal counsel and intends to exercise his right to appeal through appropriate legal channels.

“It is for anyone who feels wronged to be heard,” Alvi stated, pledging to bring the truth to light through lawful means.

He concluded his message by thanking those who have supported him and reaffirming his respect for the principles of justice and workplace dignity.


The Provincial Ombudsman’s verdict came amid increasing scrutiny over workplace harassment cases in Pakistan, especially in high-profile corporate environments.

K-Electric, the country’s only vertically integrated power utility, has yet to issue an official statement regarding the matter.
