Lahore: Farah Khan, a close aide to Bushra Bibi, the wife of former prime minister Imran Khan, has been called in connection with a case involving assets exceeding income and money laundering.
After opening an investigation following allegations of money laundering and assets beyond known sources of income against Farhat Shahzadi, also known as Farah Khan, NAB recently issued the notice.
According to a notification released by the anti-graft watchdog on April 28, “NAB has authorised an investigation against Farhat Shahzadi alias Farah Khan and the others on the accusations of accumulation of illegal assets beyond recognised sources of income, money laundering, and preserving different accounts in the name of different businesses.
“On April 28, the director-general of NAB Lahore received instructions to investigate this situation in accordance with the law.
The most recent step in the matter is that NAB Lahore has requested that Farah Khan appear before it on July 20 with the necessary paperwork.
According to NAB, Farah’s account had a significant turnover of Rs847 million over the course of the last three years, which is far more than her claimed account profile.
The abovementioned credits were quickly credited to her account and then instantly withdrawn.
