LAHORE (92 News) - Muhammad Mushtaq alias Chini, one of the approvers in a money laundering case against PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif and his family, has revealed that his account was used for whiten Suleman Shehbaz's black money.

In a statement recorded before a court, the aprover said Abdul Qayyum and his son Qasim Qayyum made transactions worth Rs600 million in his bank account through fake telegraphic transfers (TTs). He said he handed over Rs600 million cash to Qasim Qayyum who made fake TTs in his account, showing that the amount was transferred from abroad in his account.

Chini said he was used to whiten Suleman Shehbaz’s black money in 2014. He was asked to help whiten Rs600 million of Suleman. When he said it was impossible for him, he was told that his account would only be used for the purpose. He said he allowed them to use his account for the purpose due to old business ties and greed.
