Saleem Feroz Bhatti, who works at a local estate agency, was issued a notice by the Federal Bureau of Revenue (FBR) in connection with the ownership.

Moreover, Bhatti has asked the Chief Justice of Pakistan Saqib Nisar to deposit the funds found in his name to the dams' fund.

Earlier on October 15, it was discovered that billions of rupees existed in four bank accounts of a man who died four years ago in Karachi.

Muhammad Iqbal Ansari, a resident of Shadman Town, passed away in a hospital located on the city’s Shaheed-e-Millat Road on May 9, 2014.

The fake bank accounts were opened in late Ansari's name after his death. Transactions involving around Rs4.6 billion took place since then.
