Earlier in April, under suspicious circumstances Zafar Qureshi was removed from the probe of NICL scam but the FIA spokesman denied his removal.

Zafar Qureshi, was probing the case of Moonis Elahi, the son of former Chief Minister Punjab Chaudhry Pervaiz Ilahi.

Later on July 1, the Supreme Court cancelled the government’s notification issued for transfer of Zafar Qureshi and ordered him to resume his charge to probe the NICL scam with immediate effect.

The court declared that the government’s notification to remove Zafar Qureshi from the NICL scam case was being suspended.

The apex court also ordered the FIA chief to extend his support to Qureshi in the probe.
