LAHORE: FIA declares Monis Elahi as Absconders in Money Laundering Case, The FIA has identified six individuals, including Chaudhry Monis Elahi, in its latest challan presented before the Special Central Court of Lahore regarding a money laundering case. The incomplete challan named nine accused, with Monis Elahi among those declared as principals.
The accused listed in the challan include Fariyast Ali, Amtiyar Ali, Aamir Sohail, Wajid Ahmed, and Aamir Fayaz. Meanwhile, Zara Elahi, Ahmed Farhan, and Sagheem Abbas, who are on bail, were also mentioned in the court proceedings.
FIA has petitioned the court to freeze the assets of all nine accused, a request partially granted with the freezing of properties belonging to seven individuals, including Monis Elahi and Sagheem Abbas. The defense counsels for Monis Elahi and Sagheem Abbas sought an extension to prepare arguments on property freezing, to which the court granted time until August 20.
Judge Tanveer Ahmed Shaikh issued a written order for the preliminary hearing on the challan, highlighting FIA’s coordination with international authorities. According to FIA sources, efforts are underway, including Interpol’s issuance of red notices for Monis Elahi.
