FIA raids Nadia Hussain's house over bribery allegations against officer
Listen to article The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has initiated an inquiry under the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act (PECA) against model and actress Nadia Hussain after she accused an FIA officer of demanding a bribe on social media. Sources revealed that the FIA Cyber Crime Team also conducted a raid at Hussain's house. FIA officials clarified that the officer in question was not part of their staff but rather a fraudster as the scammer had used the profile picture of an FIA officer and contacted Nadia Hussain, demanding a bribe. The actress was informed that the fraudster, who claimed to be an FIA official, had specifically used a photo of an officer as his display picture on social media. Authorities advised her to report the incident to the Cyber Crime Reporting Center in Karachi. FIA officials revealed that the fraudster is from Vehari and would be apprehended soon. However, rather than following the guidance, Hussain chose to make a public statement on social media. Making unfounded accusations on social media is considered a criminal act under the law. In response, the FIA's Cyber Crime Wing in Karachi has officially launched an investigation under the PECA Act. FIA officials stated that no individual should be allowed to spread baseless propaganda without evidence. They further stated that Hussain's allegations not only contradicted the facts but also attempted to damage the reputation of a legitimate institution, which is a serious offense. It's important to note that the FIA Corporate Crime Circle in Karachi had recently arrested the former CEO of Bank Alfalah Securities, Atif Mohammad Khan, on March 8 in connection with a Rs540 million embezzlement case. The accused was found to be involved in financial fraud, abusing his authority as CEO. Atif Mohammad Khan is also Hussain's husband.
