FAISALABAD – The son of prominent Islamic scholar Maulana Tariq Jamil on Tuesday rejected the rumours claiming that his father’s bank accounts were frozen by authorities for concealing his wealth.

The denial from Yousaf Jamil comes as social media was abuzz with reports that the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) had frozen three bank accounts of the preacher, who has massive following in Pakistan and across the world, for hiding Rs49 billion.

A user wrote, “Tariq Jamil was caught red-handed with 59 billion in his three bank accounts”.

Reacting to the claims, Yousaf Jamil, in a tweet, rubbished the claims billions of rupees were deposited in the seized accounts. “There is no truth in this news at all. Spreading false news about someone is a very bad act,” he wrote.

Yousaf’s tweet was also shared in story section of the Maulana Tariq Jamil’s verified Instagram account.
