Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) MNA Khawaja Saad Rafique has received an amount of Rs 460 million in multiple bank accounts since the past eight years, a report published in local media said Monday.
According to the reports, a confidential source has said that the accountability watchdog released a report on Khawaja brothers, Saad Rafique and Salman Rafique, pertaining to the Paragon Housing Scheme scam.
It was stated that Rs2.96 billion was also released in the name of Paragon City directors, Khawaja Salman Rafique and Nadeem Zia’s son.
The report said over 500 transactions were carried out between 2010-2018. The Defence Housing Authority (DHA) bank account of Rafique received over Rs130 million and more than Rs700 million were transferred into his other account.
“Three more accounts of Rafique received an amount of over Rs700 million,” the report stated. “Executive builders deposited Rs230 million into his bank accounts as well.”
Khawaja brothers are currently under the custody of NAB. The duo was arrested on Dec 11 for their alleged involvement in the Paragon Housing Society scam.
The accountability watchdog had launched an investigation into the alleged scam in November last year after a number of victims staged protests and held a press conference at the Lahore Press Club against the fraud committed by the housing society.
