ISLAMABAD:
Upon acquiring concrete evidence, the Intelligence and Investigation Inland Revenue (I&IIR) has accelerated the investigation process against model Ayyan Ali in a money laundering case.
“The I&IIR has managed to gather a good number of evidences in the case which will lead to nabbing of the real culprits behind this money laundering case,” sources in the I&IIR told The Express Tribune on Monday.
They said the investigation body has been able to successfully unearth various facts in the case and the links which were patronising the supermodel.
“During the course of the investigations it has been found that Ayyan, who actually belongs to Gujar Khan, owns an expensive luxury apartment in a high-end housing society of Karachi, despite failing to disclose her sources of income,” the sources maintained.
During the course of investigations, it was found that the model also got Rs22 million in the form of 11 bank drafts which were delivered to her by a woman, who is living in Mirpurkhas, they said, adding that the details of the woman who gave the drafts to Ayyan Ali are also available with the I&IIR but her name is not being shared now because she will also be investigated.
The sources said the I&IIR has also sought details from all those airlines on which the supermodel has travelled. The airlines have been asked to provide details of her visits abroad with detailed information regarding the payment of tickets.
The I&IIR has the record of her 34 visits abroad, but so far it failed to get Ayyan Ali to tell the source of her income and the purpose behind her visits, they added.
The Special Customs judge Rawalpindi expressed dismay during the hearing on Monday as the customs authorities had failed to submit a full challan against the supermodel and directed them to submit the challan at the next date of hearing.
