Ali Khan Mandokhail: 
ZHOB: Under the direct supervision of Superintendent of Police (SP) Zhob, Syed Saboor Agha, law enforcement personnel successfully apprehended a key suspect on Thursday wanted in connection with a massive Meezan Bank financial scam totaling over 1.45 billion rupees.
The high-profile arrest marks a major breakthrough for local law enforcement, showcasing the swift responsiveness of the Zhob police under SP Agha’s command.
Strategic Command Leads to Swift Arrest
Acting on a reliable telephonic tip-off regarding the movement of the accused, SP Syed Saboor Agha mobilized a specialized police team to intercept the suspect. The authorities had received intelligence that the accused, identified as Umar, was fleeing from Quetta toward Zhob in a Toyota Vitz (Registration No. 447).
Under the SP’s direction, the police team immediately rushed to the Quetta-Zhob Highway and established a strategic security checkpoint (naka). The tactical deployment paid off swiftly when officers spotted and intercepted the targeted vehicle, taking the suspect into custody without incident.
Handover to FIA Scheduled
Following the successful operation, SP Syed Saboor Agha and his team immediately coordinated with federal authorities. The accused is currently being held in lawful custody at a local facility.
A dedicated team from the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) is scheduled to arrive in Zhob tomorrow. The suspect will be formally handed over to the federal investigators to face extensive questioning regarding the multi-billion rupee banking fraud.
