The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has launched a comprehensive investigation into suspicious financial transactions exceeding 1 billion rupees executed through two ordinary salary accounts at a private bank branch in Nawabshah. According to official sources within the agency, a formal criminal case regarding the multi-million rupee scam was registered on 29 May.
Initial findings from the FIA reveal that the targeted salary accounts were actively being manipulated and operated by unauthorized third parties rather than the actual account holders. The agency confirmed that the accounts were utilized as front channels to launder massive volumes of illicit wealth through highly suspicious transactional patterns. Both primary account holders named in the initial inquiry have successfully secured pre-arrest bail from the relevant courts.
As the probe intensifies, the FIA has formally implicated four bank employees in the case for deliberately withholding crucial transactional data and failing to report suspicious activities to regulatory authorities. The accused banking staff have been served official summons, directing them to appear at the FIA Sukkur office to undergo formal interrogation regarding their alleged facilitation of the money-laundering operation.
