The Anti-Corruption Circle of the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has arrested a former postmaster for embezzlement amounting to millions of rupees.
Officials said that for weeks, FIA officials had been tracking a trail of missing public funds. The investigation led them to Muhammad Shafiq, a former postmaster. The FIA stated that millions of rupees had been siphoned through fake money orders and bogus parcel bookings.
Shafiq was accused of embezzling more than Rs4.9 million in government funds. He allegedly earned illegal money through fake money orders, urgent MOs and bogus EMS and foreign parcel bookings.
