A rickshaw driver from Karachi, Zor Talab’s bank accounts were used to make “anonymous” transactions amounting to a whopping Rs8.5 billion, a local media outlet reported.
According to the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR), the bank accounts of the rickshaw driver were used by Salar Enterprises and Salar Mining for transactions with at least five banks by a man identified as Ammar Khan. Rickshaw driver’s details were used to open accounts in various private banks of Karachi and Buner.
Transactions amounting to Rs4.6 billion were carried out from one and Rs3.6 billion from another bank account.
Following this, the FBR sent a notice to Zor Talab seeking a reply regarding tax evasion and money-laundering charges. Moreover, a notice will also be sent to Ammar Khan soon.
