The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has registered two separate cases against Dr Fazeela Abbasi, sister of actor Hamza Ali Abbasi, on charges of money laundering and operating an unregistered clinic.

According to officials, one case has been filed under money laundering provisions in the Commercial Banking Circle, while the second case has been registered by the Anti-Corruption Wing.

Investigators claim to have found prima facie evidence of money laundering through hawala and hundi channels. Authorities revealed that 22 bank accounts linked to Dr Abbasi showed a cumulative turnover of Rs25 billion.

The FIA further stated that her declared annual income ranged between Rs400,000 and Rs600,000, raising suspicions about the scale of financial activity.

She is also accused of illegally transferring funds to the United States and Dubai. Authorities said investigations are ongoing and legal action is being pursued in accordance with the law.
