Former Afghan Taliban chief Mullah Akhtar Mansour’s five properties, estimated to be worth over PKR 32 million and purchased by him in Karachi by using fake identities, have been taken over by the Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) for auction, Dawn reported on May 8. Mullah Mansour, who was killed in a drone strike along the Pakistan-Iran border in Balochistan on May 21, 2016, had purchased five properties, including plots and houses, in Karachi. This revelation came in a report submitted by the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to the ATC-II in July last year regarding an investigation into a case related to alleged fundraising by the slain Afghan Taliban leader and his accomplices through the purchase of properties on the back of forged identities. The FIA had booked Mullah Mansour, aliases Mohammad Wali and Gul Mohammad, Akhtar Mohammad and Amaar in a case lodged under Section 11H (pertaining to fundraising and money laundering) of the Anti-Terrorism Act, 1997, read with sections 420 (cheating and dishonestly inducing delivery of property), 468 (forgery for purpose of cheating) and 471 (using as genuine a forged document) of the Pakistan Penal Code.
