LAHORE: The Federal Investigation Agency has detected that Dr Tahirul Qadri purchased a bullet-proof car from the charity funds of the Tehreek-i-Mihajul Quran.
An official told Dawn that Dr Qadri had purchased a bullet-proof car from the charity amount coming in the account of the TMQ from the UK. "The car has been purchased for Rs13.6 million," he said, adding the agency would provide information to the relevant department.
TMQ spokesperson Abdul Hafeez Chaudhry denied the allegation. "It is a baseless allegation as Dr Sahib had never used a penny from the charity funds for himself or any member of his family. He even did not claim royalty money of his books. The accounts of TMQ and its leaders are open and anyone can check them," he said.
