Money laundering along with terrorism have been two major issues that have not only put Pakistanis into trouble domestically but also into the grey list of the Financial action task force (FATF) since 2018.
Tiktok star Hareem Shah who has recently been blamed for the money laundering act and her assets have also been frozen by the FIA, met the former MQM leader Altaf Hussain outside the premises of Kingston-Crown court in London. The former chairman is in exile and has been declared a fugitive from the Anti-terrorism court of Pakistan due to his terror activities as well as hate speeches.
Hareem Shah expressed her joy while talking to the media due to her short interaction with Altaf Hussain. She said that during the activation time of the MQM leaders in Pakistan, she was very young and don’t know much about their agenda and what they did in Karachi but one thing is certain, I found Altaf Hussain very much esteemed and he also prayed for me to ease my difficulties which means a lot.
Both are being highly criticised over the social media platforms due to their acts. Netizens are also blaming agencies and the current government for giving too much leverage to Hareem Shah and his claim over the relationships with the ministers is also a talking point among the people.
