Meanwhile, the accountability bureau also arrested BZU Lahore Campus Director Hamza Munir on charges of misuse of authority and cheating the public at large for establishing an ‘illegal’ sub-campus.

Details suggest the proprietors of the M/s West Continental Group, which ran BZU Lahore, cheated the students by collecting Rs925 million as admission fee and other dues.
