ISLAMABAD: In a bid to ensure the return of former Pakistani Ambassador to the United States (US) Husain Haqqani, who is also a key player in the ‘Memogate’ scandal, the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has written a letter to the Foreign Office (FO) asking it to contact the US Department of State to intervene in this matter.

Sources in FIA said that details have been provided to FO about the case against Haqqani in which he was accused of embezzling $7.2 million from a secret fund.

The sources further said that the FO wing dealing with the US would review the letter and contact the American officials for further action.
