Progress has been reported in the National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) corruption scandal, with large-scale alleged fraud uncovered through call centres.
In operations conducted at more than 20 call centres in Rawalpindi and Islamabad, significant records were seized. According to sources, two directors, three deputy directors, and two inspectors of the concerned department were allegedly found involved in the call centre fraud.
Investigating agencies have obtained call logs, financial transactions, and important email records. The call centre network was allegedly used for the misuse of identification and financial information. The funding network of the officers involved in the fraud has also been traced.
Intelligence footage and CCTV have provided concrete evidence of the call centres’ activities. Law enforcement agencies have secured the banking and mobile payment trail, and evidence has been obtained of funds being transferred abroad through banking channels. A case against the concerned officers is expected to be registered in the coming days.
