Pakistani actor Hamza Ali Abbasi has publicly denied any connection to a money laundering case involving his sister, Dr Fazeela Abbasi. He said reports linking him to the investigation are false and misleading. In a statement posted on his official Instagram account, Hamza clarified that he is not under investigation by any agency and has no role in the ongoing case.
The actor emphasized that his sister’s legal and professional affairs are entirely separate from him. “I am not under any investigation by any agency, nor am I part of this case in any capacity,” he said. Hamza added that he wanted to correct the record after media coverage created confusion.
Actor Stands by Sister Amid Allegations
Hamza praised his sister as a “highly accomplished professional” with a successful career of her own. He expressed full support for her during this challenging time. Furthermore, he stated that her side of the story deserves to be heard and hoped that Pakistan’s legal institutions would ensure justice.
He cautioned that, since he is not a legal party to the case, he should not be expected to comment on its proceedings. Hamza also reminded media outlets to avoid falsely associating him with the investigation, warning that continued misreporting could force him to pursue legal action.
Details of the Money Laundering Case
Dr Fazeela Abbasi, a celebrity dermatologist and aesthetician, faces allegations of financial irregularities. According to the FIR, investigators traced approximately Rs25 billion through 22 bank accounts linked to her. Some transactions reportedly flowed to Dubai and the United States. Authorities have questioned how such large sums align with her declared annual income, which was reportedly only a few lakh rupees.
Previously, the Islamabad High Court closed the case. However, it resurfaced after a sessions court reviewed the matter following the cancellation of her interim bail. Investigators are now examining the sources of the funds in detail.
Public Figures in the Spotlight
Hamza Ali Abbasi and his sister are both high-profile figures in Pakistan. Hamza is widely regarded as a leading actor, while Dr Fazeela has established a name in aesthetic medicine. The controversy has sparked public attention and debate on media responsibility.
By clarifying his position, Hamza aims to separate his reputation from the case while supporting his sister privately. He also emphasized the importance of reporting responsibly and avoiding false assumptions in high-profile cases.
The actor’s statement highlights both his concern for fairness and the sensitivity surrounding ongoing legal proceedings. Authorities are continuing their investigation, and Hamza has made it clear he expects accurate and unbiased media coverage moving forward.
