Investigation have been initiated by the Federal Intelligence Agency (FIA) against Hareem Shah, a Tik Tok celebrity, on money laundering charges according to Geo news.
FIA has taken this step after Hareem Shah’s now-deleted video in which she is seen with stacks of Pounds saying that she brought cash abroad challenging FIA do arrest her.
Officials from the FIA have decided to issue a letter to the British National Crime Agency, requesting to investigate Hareem Shah.
“Action is being taken against Hareem Shah under foreign exchange laws, unlawful transfer of foreign currency comes under money laundering” an FIA official said.
Shah, whose real name is Fizza Hussain, travelled from Karachi International Airport to Doha on the night of January 10th, according to records obtained by Media.
The Tik Tok actress revealed that she was dealing with significant sums of money for the first time and advised others to be cautious, adding that she had arrived safely in Doha.
“I was bringing a large amount from Pakistan to the UK for the first time. When bringing the amount, take care because you might land yourself in trouble. No one stopped me nor can they stop me. I reached safely,” she said.
Controversial Pakistani social media influencer Hareem Shah in a recent video accepted illegally transferring foreign currency out of the country.
