The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has registered two separate cases against Dr Fazila Abbasi, sister of actor Hamza Ali Abbasi, over allegations of money laundering and running an unregistered clinic.
The first case, filed under money laundering provisions, was registered with the Commercial Banking Circle, while the second was lodged with the FIA’s Anti-Corruption Wing. Investigators claim there is apparent evidence of money laundering through hawala transactions and other suspicious financial activities.
According to the FIA, Dr Abbasi holds 22 bank accounts with a reported turnover of PKR 25 billion, whereas her declared annual income ranges between PKR 400,000 to 600,000. She is also accused of illegally transferring funds to the United States and Dubai.
The cases mark a significant move by the FIA to investigate alleged financial irregularities involving high-profile individuals in the country.
