ISLAMABAD, Oct 27 (TNS): A special court of the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) indicted Friday former Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan (SECP) chairman Zafar Hijazi for tampering with records related to the Sharif family’s Chaudhry Sugar Mills.
Hijazi was taken into FIA custody earlier this year after a report released by the joint investigation team (JIT), probing ousted prime minister Nawaz Sharif and his family’s wealth, alleged that the former SECP chairman had altered records related to Chaudhry Sugar Mills.
A case was registered against Hijazi on the orders of the Supreme Court after the three-member Panama Papers case implementation bench acted on the JIT report.
