ISLAMABAD: The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has registered a case against PTI leader Jahangir Tareen on charges of financial fraud of Rs3.14 billion.
The FIA has also named Jahangir Tareen’s son Ali Tareen and son-in-law in the case.
According to the FIR, Jahangir Tareen transferred Rs3.14 billion to his son-in-law’s closed factory and the money was later transferred to the accounts of family members.
Tareen’s son-in-law used to make paper from the palm tree while Jahangir Tareen’s factory has 26 per cent public shareholders.
On the other hand, the PTI leader termed the allegations of FIA as baseless and fabricated.
He said that tax was paid on the money transferred abroad and the amount was transferred via banks.
