Islamabad : On the request of the National Accountability Bureau NAB) , the govt of Pakistan has blocked passports of four main characters of € 190 million fraud including Bahria Town chairman, Malik Riaz , his son –Ali Riaz , advisor to Imran Khan government for National Accountability Bureau (NAB) , Shahzad Akbar and Farah Gogi , front lady of former first lady –Bushra Bibi.
All these accused involved in € 190 million fraud case are out of Pakistan currently. Farah Gogi , the alleged main dealer -wheeler of former first lady , Bushra Bibi , had flown to Dubai soon after dis missile of Imran Khan government in 2022. Farah Gogi is also involved in many other financial scams in Pakistan as she was enjoying full liberty to strike deals not in Punjab government , but in the federal government on behalf of Bushra Bibi from 2018-22 .
Malik Riaz, who knew hard days in the new setup, facilitated fleeing of Farah Gogi within 48 hours after Imran Khan ‘s exit from power. Farah Gogi ‘s picture sitting in Cessna aeroplane owned by Malik Riaz flashed in the local media soon after her fleeing to Dubai in April 2022. Cunning Malik Riaz knew Farah Gogi ‘s presence in Pakistan in the new set- up could create problems for him and many others including Imran Khan and his spouse, made sure that she leave Pakistan in last days of Imran Khan rule . After facilitating Farah Gogi in fleeing from Pakistan,
Malik Riaz and his son left Pakistan in 2024 .Malik Riaz is currently living luxurious life in Dubai with his son –Ali Riaz and other family members and planning to develop a new Dubai City in Dubai.
His new real estate project in Dubai has already damaged Pakistan and reportedly billion of dollars have flown to Dubai through Hundi / Hawala for his project . Seeing massive flight of money from Pakistan for Malik Riaz’a new real estate project in Dubai , NAB had issued a warning to public at large last week that Malik Riaz is a fugitive and wanted in Pakistan for dozens of financial and land scams and any investment in his Dubai real estate project will fall in money laundering category and those who will be found involved in it will be dealt as per law of the land.
Malik Riaz, who was once considered Don of Pakistan, is facing many cases currently . The court has declared him fugitive in € 190 million fraud case. This € 190 million fraud case exposed his real face . He plundered hundred of billions of dollars from Pakistanis in the name of Bahria Town housing , but remained untouchable for any case for decades. Every powerful section of Pakistan and ruling elite including judges , journalists, bueaucrate and generals were beneficiaries of Malik Riaz ‘s plundering. Now with seeing light of € 190 million fraud ,
Malik Riaz ‘s real face as fraudulent and plunderer stand exposed . This case has also exposed real face of many so -called pious and it may led to punishment to all characters of this € 190 million fraud. Malik Riaz , being a cunning at par issued a statement last week to claim as if he was being pressurised to give statement against Imran Khan and Farah Gogi in € 190 million. He probably forgot that his such blacking mailing tactics are not going to work this time.
The court has already jailed Imran Khan and his spouse –Bushra Bibi -in the same case.
