Dr. Fazeela Abbasi, the sister of renowned actor Hamza Ali Abbasi, has landed in hot water after the court rejected her bail in a 25 billion rupee money laundering case. During the hearing at the Islamabad sessions court, the judge announced the cancellation of bail after the accused failed to defend the sources of the laundered money.

In its investigation, the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has determined that Rs. 25 billion were transferred into her 22 bank accounts, which were subsequently deposited into bank accounts in Dubai and the USA. The closed cases by the Islamabad High Court have been reinstated after the FIA submitted a plea against the verdict. Accepting the plea, further investigation against Dr. Fazeela has resumed.

In addition, the inflow of cash into the accounts does not match the annual income the accused has submitted to the courts, which she claims ranges from Rs. 400,000 to Rs. 600,000. While the FIA investigates the transactions and their liable sources, another case has been registered against the accused. In this case filed against her, Dr. Fazeela has been accused of operating an aesthetic clinic without registration.

Dr. Fazeela is a UK-qualified dermatologist specializing in laser and cosmetic surgery, with clinics in Islamabad and Dubai. Operating since 2003, she is a famous celebrity aesthetician focusing on non-surgical aesthetics, laser treatments, and dermatology.
