An important suspect in the murder case of Amir Balaj has been taken into custody in Oman. Authorities in Oman captured the wanted man, Bilawal, and took him to Lahore.

The FIA official stated that the suspect had gone overseas last year in order to avoid arrest and that a case had been filed against him in Lahore.

Bilawal was the third gunman in the Amir Balaj murder case, according to police confirmation.

Context

The horrific incidents that resulted in Ameer Balaj Tipu’s premature death took place during a wedding ceremony in a residential community close to the Thokar Niaz Beg district of Lahore.

Based on initial inquiries, the armed and determined attacker blatantly attacked Balaj Tipu, who had recently joined the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), killing him instantly.

Two more people suffered severe injuries in the ensuing crossfire, adding to the shock and tragedy of the event.

Regarding Senator Faisal Vawda’s claims that Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) personnel had threatened his life, the Inland Revenue Service personnel Association has replied.

The group denies the allegations, claiming that none of its officers threatened anyone, and denounced the attempt to discredit them.

The statement emphasized that government car purchases were governed by regulations and urged Vawda to back up his claims with proof. It also raised fears that irrational remarks were hurting officers’ morale and would interfere with the tax collecting process.
The committee made the decision to forward the threatening officers’ case to the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) for additional examination. Along with calling for a high-level investigation, the FBR Chairman pledged to prosecute individuals culpable for the threats.

The members of the Finance Committee urged that the case be sent to a criminal body such as the FIA. The committee has previously voiced its disapproval of the FBR’s acquisition of more than 1,000 automobiles at a cost of billions of rupees.
