4. (C) Gillani was arrested on February 10, 2001 under corruption charges and sentenced by an accountability court to five years imprisonment and a fine of 1 million rupees. He was charged with misuse of authority and convicted for causing a loss of 10.6 million rupees through the ""misuse"" of official transport, official telephones, setting up camp offices at Lahore and Multan, and for purchasing luxury vehicles at higher than market prices. While in jail, Gillani authored a book about his political history and imprisonment, titled ""Chah-e-Yousaf Say Sada,"" which loosely translates to ""from the well where Prophet Joseph was dumped by his brothers."" In October 2006 the Lahore High Court approved the appeal of his sentence and ordered his release.
