Karachi, March 14, 2025: The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has launched an inquiry under the Prevention of Electronic Crimes Act (PECA) against model and actress Nadia Hussain after she publicly accused an FIA officer of demanding a bribe on social media.
According to sources, the FIA Cyber Crime Wing also conducted a raid at Hussain’s residence. However, FIA officials clarified that the alleged officer was, in fact, a fraudster who had impersonated an FIA official by using an officer’s profile picture while contacting her.
Authorities had advised Hussain to report the matter to the Cyber Crime Reporting Center in Karachi, as the fraudster was traced to Vehari and was already under investigation. Instead of following official procedures, she took to social media to make accusations, which FIA officials claim amounted to baseless propaganda.
The FIA’s Cyber Crime Wing has now launched an official probe against Hussain under PECA, stating that spreading unverified allegations against a government institution is a serious offense. Officials emphasized that such actions could harm the agency’s reputation and will not be tolerated without evidence.
Meanwhile, in a separate high-profile case, the FIA Corporate Crime Circle in Karachi recently arrested Atif Mohammad Khan, the former CEO of Bank Alfalah Securities, on March 8 over a Rs540 million embezzlement case. Khan, who is also Nadia Hussain’s husband, is accused of financial fraud and abuse of power.
