KARACHI: The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) Immigration Karachi has arrested a passenger arriving from Cambodia, who is believed to be a prominent member of a highly organized international human trafficking and fraud network.
According to an FIA spokesperson, Zain Ullah was implicated in both human trafficking and cross-border fraud activities. Zain had traveled to Cambodia in September 2024, where he worked for an online fraud company. He later became an agent, recruiting individuals from Pakistan for illegal trafficking operations.
Initial investigations have revealed that Zain is a key figure in a sophisticated syndicate involved in both human trafficking and fraud. A detailed examination of his mobile phone uncovered several passport images, payment receipts, and bank transaction records linked to the operation.
The spokesperson further stated that Zain used both personal bank accounts and cryptocurrency platforms to receive illicit payments. He has been transferred to the FIA’s Anti-Human Trafficking Circle in Karachi for further legal proceedings, and investigations are ongoing.
