LAHORE – President of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), Chaudhry Parvez Elahi, was once again detained by the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) in connection with a money laundering investigation.
The former Punjab chief minister was taken into custody from Camp Jail in Lahore by a team from the agency. He is being investigated for several crimes, including corruption. Mr. Elahi will be questioned by the FIA on his suspected involvement in money laundering.
An accused frontman for the PTI leader, Chaudhry Zaman, was detained by the investigation agency earlier in the day. Later, the suspect was brought before the judge who had authorised his four-day physical remand. He apparently engages in illicit business.
Following the admissions Mr. Zaman made while being questioned, Mr. Elahi was taken into custody. The FIA said that it had obtained proof from his mobile phone.
