FIA Arrests Suspects in Multimillion Dollar Fraud Involving Japanese Consulate

The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) in Karachi has apprehended two Japanese consulate employees and two private bank officers for involvement in a multi-million dollar embezzlement scheme using forged documents.

The FIA started an investigation following a formal complaint from the Karachi Japanese consulate. The investigation revealed that the group exploited counterfeit consulate documents to misappropriate funds. The FIA has successfully recovered USD 121,000, 600,000 Pakistani Rupees, and shares certificates valued at 600,000 PKR.

The investigation, led by the FIA’s Commercial Bank Circle, identified the consulate employees involved as Ubaid and Victor and the bank officers as Fahad and Zeeshan. The fraud was orchestrated by creating two bank accounts under the name of a diplomat’s wife using fabricated signatures and documents.

The culprits employed forged introductory letters from the consulate and falsified signatures to facilitate financial transactions and withdrawals. The misappropriated funds were initially intended for operational expenses such as the consulate’s electricity bills and customs clearance fees.

This case highlights significant security lapses within financial and diplomatic protocols, prompting an ongoing review of internal controls to prevent future incidents.
