LAHORE: The National Accountability (NAB) Lahore has summoned four accused in the assets beyond means case against Farhat Shahzadi, alias Farah Khan.
The anti-graft body has sent notices to Farah Khan’s manager, cashier and bankers. All four people have been directed to appear before the NAB on May 30 along with the relevant records.
On May 8, NAB launched an inquiry against Khan over allegations of making assets beyond her known sources of income and alleged money laundering. The inquiry was authorized last month in a meeting held at the bureau’s headquarters.
According to a NAB press release issued after the meeting, “huge turnover amounting to Rs847m has been found in her account during the last 3 years, which does not commensurate with her stated account profile.”
“While reviewing the income tax returns of Khan, it was allegedly observed that her assets significantly increased from the year 2018 onwards for unknown reasons,” read the press release.
