Brampton Super League leadership demands removal of business ambassador
By Nawaz Gohar ; The leadership of the Brampton Super League (BSL) has formally petitioned Brampton Mayor Patrick Brown to immediately remove Muhammad Shoaib from his prestigious role as Business Ambassador for Tourism.
The call for dismissal comes alongside a demand for the City to cancel all municipal ground permits issued to organizations associated with Shoaib, following a series of explosive allegations involving forgery, embezzlement, and the abuse of corporate authority.
In a press conference held, BSL Founder Tariq Pervez and Director Faisal Moledina unveiled a legal battle aimed at restoring integrity to the local cricket landscape. “Our objective is pure accountability, not sensationalism,” the officials stated. “Cricket is a game of gentlemanly conduct, and it must be governed with absolute transparency and integrity.”
The dispute centers on the governance of BSL, a federal not-for-profit corporation governed by the Canada Not-for-profit Corporations Act (CNCA). Pervez and Moledina allege that Shoaib orchestrated an unlawful “corporate hijacking” by removing them as directors without a legally convened meeting.
According to the officials, Shoaib subsequently appointed his wife to the board in a move they describe as a blatant violation of federal law.
A formal legal notice has been served through counsel, challenging the unauthorized removal of directors and improper corporate filings. The notice emphasizes that under the CNCA, all board authority must stem from lawful resolutions and properly convened member meetings—procedures the officials claim were entirely ignored.
The financial stakes are high. Muhammad Shoaib has been served with a formal demand to repay disputed corporate funds totaling CAD $39,181.
The deadline for repayment, or the submission of a legally binding repayment plan, has been set for 5:00 p.m. on February 12, 2026. Additionally, Shoaib has been directed to return all corporate property and assets currently in his possession.
The controversy has direct implications for Brampton’s sports infrastructure. BSL officials have requested that the City of Brampton rescind ground allocations for any organizations linked to Shoaib.
This request comes as over 24 cricket teams have formally applied for ground space for the 2026 season, raising concerns that favoritism and mismanagement could deprive legitimate clubs of playing facilities.
The BSL leadership is now demanding a comprehensive, independent investigation by Mayor Patrick Brown and the Brampton City Council to safeguard public trust.
Yusuf German, a member of the mediation committee, confirmed that Shoaib was invited to the press conference to present his defense but declined to attend.
“This is only the beginning,” warned Director Faisal Moledina. “We possess extensive documentation to support our claims, and our legal action will only intensify until justice and transparency are restored to Brampton cricket.”
