Armaghan Qureshi, the prime suspect in the Mustafa Amir murder case, has been accused of running an illegal call center and stealing Rs. 17 billion through phishing scams over the past three years, officials revealed during a National Assembly subcommittee meeting.
According to reports, Qureshi and his team posed as American officials to deceive foreign nationals into sharing their credit card details. The stolen funds were funneled through 40 bank accounts registered under the names of his employees. Investigators have retrieved critical evidence from Qureshi’s personal laptop, shedding light on the scale of the operation.
Lawmakers expressed frustration over delays in the investigation, including the raid on the suspect’s residence and the failure to record his confession. They also raised concerns about the potential involvement of courier services in drug trafficking and questioned the role of Qureshi’s uncle, who is a serving police officer.
The subcommittee has directed authorities to submit detailed reports in the next session, emphasizing the need for accountability and transparency. The final committee meeting on the case is scheduled to take place after Eid.
