KOHISTAN: The National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has recovered another Rs 200 million from the house of accused Qaiser Iqbal during the operation in the Kohistan mega corruption case.

Rs 100 million each was recovered during two separate operations in the Kohistan mega corruption case.

Earlier, Rs 1.6 billion was recovered from Qaiser Iqbal’s house. The money was hidden in paint cans, which were identified by his arrested wife.

According to NAB, Qaiser Iqbal was posted as a clerk and later as a head clerk in the C&W Department, Upper Kohistan, from August 2013.

During this time, he allegedly played a central role in illegally withdrawing money from the government treasury by preparing fake documents.

According to sources, billions of rupees were transferred to the accounts of Qaiser Iqbal’s wife and a contractor, Mumtaz, while allegations have emerged that several influential figures have also benefited from the scam.
