Fake bank account case: Billions found in the fake account of female government employee

*ISLAMABAD - The fake bank accounts case doesn't seem to be ending any time soon as new fake bank account cases have surfaced.*

*The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has unearthed yet another case of fake bank account, after millions of rupees were found in a female government employee’s account.*

As per media reports, the woman, Sarwat Zehra, a resident of Korangi in Karachi, was served a notice by the FBR for being a tax defaulter after billions of rupees were found in her account under her name and a company registered in her name.

The woman said that she was unaware of the existence of the account or the company and alleged that her CNIC and phone number were used for this purpose without her knowledge.

The FBR has also frozen the salary account of the women, whereas the law enforcement agencies have summoned the women for investigation.

This is among the number of similar cases that have emerged in last few weeks. Days ago, a Karachi-based ‘faluda’ vendor was found out to be a billionaire, while in another similar case a student from Jhang was found to have Rs170 million stashed in a bank account under his name.
