Atif Khan, Nadia Hussain’s husband, is already in FIA custody over his alleged involvement in Rs54 crore fraud.
According to FIA Corporate Circle, Nadia Hussain has emerged as a major beneficiary in the case.

Investigations indicate that an amount of Rs26.4 million was transferred to the salon accounts through two separate accounts belonging to Atif Khan.
The agency found that substantial amounts were transferred 19 times at different intervals since 2019. Atif Khan’s fraudulent activities reportedly caused a loss of Rs1.2 billion to the company he was associated with.
The FIA alleges that he misused company funds for personal accounts and covered his business losses by charging them to the bank.
Atif Khan is accused of transferring Rs540 million in business losses to the bank’s accounts while personally using over Rs110 million.
It is to be noted here that the Pakistan actress tied the knot with Atif Khan in 2003 and the couple has four kids, Shadal, Shanza, Sasha and Sherdad.
