The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) Wednesday again summoned former President Asif Ali Zardari and his sister Faryal Talpur to appear before Joint Investigation Team (JIT) on August 4 in money laundering case. The duo has been summoned to appear in the FIA headquarter in Islamabad this time contrary to earlier summons, which required them to appear at the Banking Circle of the FIA in Karachi. The FIA issued notices to both, directing them to appear before the JIT.
The FIA is probing into billions of rupees money laundering case and also probing more than 32 people allegedly involved in the case after unearthing fake accounts, through which billions of rupees were transacted. Along with others, Zardari Group also received the amounts from these fake accounts, according to FIR lodged into this money laundering scam.
Earlier, the FIA summoned both Asif Zardari and his sister Faryal Talpur to appear before the JIT on July 11, however they sought time to appear because of their engagements in connection with the general elections. They also failed to appear on July 28 when they were summoned again and Faryal Talpur sought more time when his counsel submitted a application to this effect.
