Court Orders FIA to Submit Challan Against Armaghan

KARACHI, The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has once again failed to submit the challan in the illegal call centre and money laundering cases against Armaghan, the primary suspect linked to the Mustafa Amir murder investigation.

During the latest court hearing, the Judicial Magistrate expressed frustration over repeated delays by the FIA’s investigation officer, who has been repeatedly granted extensions but has yet to present the final case documents. The court warned that strict action would be taken if the challan was not submitted as ordered.

The FIA’s Anti-Money Laundering Circle has accused Armaghan of operating an illegal call centre involved in a large-scale scam targeting American citizens. The agency alleges that the suspect laundered hundreds of thousands of dollars monthly using cryptocurrencies and engaged in a sophisticated forgery scheme.

According to the investigation, Armaghan ran a team of 25 employees who scammed multiple victims daily. He allegedly opened bank accounts in his employees’ names to facilitate fraudulent transactions and set up a company in the United States, with assistance from his father, to manage hawala/hundi operations.

Authorities have seized three luxury vehicles from Armaghan’s possession, worth millions of rupees, while reports suggest that he sold an additional five cars purchased with illicit funds.

The FIA continues to pursue the case, but delays in submitting the challan have raised concerns about the pace of the investigation.

 In a startling development, the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has revealed that Armaghan, the prime suspect in the murder of Mustafa Amir, was involved in a wide range of criminal activities, including money laundering, cryptocurrency fraud, and drug trafficking.

According to the interim challan submitted by the FIA to the Anti-Terrorism Court, Armaghan operated a call centre through which he earned an estimated $300,000 to $400,000 per month. These earnings were reportedly transferred into cryptocurrency to obscure the origin of the funds.
