Actor Hamza Ali Abbasi has issued a clarification after his name surfaced in media coverage relating to allegations involving his sister, Dr Fazeela Abbasi, stating he has no connection to the case and is not under investigation.
In a statement shared on his official Instagram account, Hamza said recent reports had given the impression that he was somehow associated with the Federal Investigation Agency's (FIA) money laundering case against his sister, which he said was “not true”. “I am not under any investigation by any agency, nor am I part of this case in any capacity,” he said, adding that he wanted to set the record straight.
Hamza described his sister as “a highly accomplished professional” with “her own extremely successful career”, and said he stood by her “with love and support during this time”.
While expressing confidence in her integrity, he said he believed “her side of the story deserves to be heard” and voiced hope that institutions would ensure justice was served and “the truth will prevail”. At the same time, the actor stressed that her legal and professional affairs are entirely separate from him.
