As per details, the CNICs of six other co-accused including Amir Sohail, Umair Fiyaz, Imtiaz Ali Shah, Fursat Ali, and Abid Ali Khan have also been blocked.
According to the Director of FIA Lahore, individuals involved in money laundering will not be given any concessions.
The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) earlier tightened its noose around PTI leader Moonis Elahi in a money laundering case, declaring him a ‘proclaimed offender’ and submitting a supplementary challan in Lahore Court.
The challan, submitted in the FIA’s anti-money laundering court in Lahore, alleged that Farasat Ali Chatha deposited Rs1 billion into Moonis Elahi’s company accounts, further implicating him in the money laundering scheme.
The investigation agency had earlier issued a red warrant for Elahi’s arrest, which has already been sent to Interpol.
The FIA declared six individuals, including Moonis Elahi, ‘proclaimed offenders’ in the money laundering case.
The accused include Elahi, Amir Saeed, Wajid Ahmed, Amir Fiaz, Farasat Chatha, and Imtiaz Shah. The agency has submitted a challan in court, alleging that the suspects laundered over Rs12 billion.
The agency has registered a case against the suspects under the Anti-Money Laundering Act.
Moonis Elahi is also facing allegations of billions of rupees of corruption in development projects.
It is pertinent to mention here that the Special Central Court Lahore ordered to the seizure of all assets and bank accounts of former federal minister Elahi in a money laundering central Court case on November 17.
The special court in Lahore declared the former federal minister fugitive as he failed to appear before the court.
The court expressed satisfaction with the report that the former minister is deliberately evading the arrest while seeking assistance from the relevant institution in the case.
