JHANG – It seems the money laundering scam has entered Punjab too after making startling revelations in Karachi.

A student on Monday found out he had become an instant millionaire after authorities discovered Rs170 million stashed in a bank account under his name.

The tutee said he was completely unaware of the incident and only got to know about it after the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) summoned him.

The joint investigation team said they had summoned the operator of the account bearing the student’s name.

On September 29, FIA informed a street side vendor identified as Abdul Qadir found Rs 2 billion in his account.
