According to the police, the accused followed Elahi s orders and exchanged a briefcase containing liquor bottles for an envelope full of cash from Punjab House employee Faheem Mirza. The accused were also presented before a magistrate in Islamabad.

The defendants have also admitted in front of the court that the purported workers of Parliament House Islamabad, Faheem and Irshad, were frontmen for the former chief minister, according to a media report.

They stated that both suspected frontmen were involved in financial transactions on behalf of Chaudhry Parvez Elahi.

They also revealed that the purported frontmen for Elahi host private events at the former chief minister s home for him.

The accused stated that “Asim Cheema also organises private parties for Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi,” adding that the alcohol bottles for the private occasion had also been obtained from Islamabad.
