FIA Ends Inquiry Into Money Laundering Involving Gen Bajwa's Relative

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text dp_text_size=”size-4″]

The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has concluded its inquiry into suspicious financial transactions by Sabir Hameed Mithu, a close relative of former army chief Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa. The investigation was closed after Sabir, who operates a property business, cooperated with investigators and provided evidence of his innocence, including tax records, bank statements, property and vehicle details, as well as information about offshore companies.

Complaints against Sabir prompted the FIA’s probe, but upon investigation, no evidence was found to support the allegations. Sabir had been summoned by the FIA earlier this month for questioning regarding the case. The FIA’s notice indicated that Sabir had been summoned as part of an ongoing criminal investigation related to high volumes of suspicious transactions in his bank accounts that were inconsistent with his declared business profile.

It’s worth noting that Gen Bajwa’s son is married to Sabir’s daughter. Sabir was reported to have 19 bank accounts, 14 in Pakistan and 5 abroad, with transactions totaling Rs5.34 billion. The FIA had also requested records of Sabir’s international travels, offshore companies, and shell companies, as well as details about his properties in Pakistan and abroad, vehicles, and foreign currency transactions, including declarations made by him and his family members at airports.
