ISLAMABAD, July 9 (TNS): The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) imposed travel restriction on former president Asif Ali Zardari, his sister Faryal Talpur and other after the apex court ruling in the fake accounts case.
Local media reports claimed that names of Pakistan Peoples Party leaders, Naseer Abdullahd, head of a private bank, Anwar Majeed, a close aide of Zardari, and five others have been put on a temporary Stop List, which is maintained alongside the Exit Control List (ECL) to bar ‘wanted criminal’ persons from fleeing the country.
A final decision to put their names on the ECL will be taken after the approval of an FIA’s committee.
A three-member bench of the Supreme Court headed by Chief Justice Mian Saqib Nisar on Sunday heard the case related to money laundering scam involving Rs35 billion.
