The court has ordered the blocking of Chaudhry Moonis Elahi's national ID card and passport in the ongoing money laundering case with the FIA, 24NewsHD TV Channel reported on Thursday. 

According to the report, the court has also directed the freezing of Moonis Elahi's properties and bank accounts, as well as placing the names of Moonis Elahi and six other absconders on the control list.

On July 13, 2024, a Special Central Court in Lahore ordered the freezing of the properties of PML-Q leader Ch Moonis Elahi, Saghim Abbas, and seven other accused in connection with a money-laundering case against them.

The order came after the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) declared Moonis Elahi and five others as absconders during the hearing, where the agency presented an incomplete challan.

The FIA's challan included Moonis Elahi and co-accused Faryasat Ali, Imtiyar Ali, Aamir Sohail, Wajid Ahmed, and Aamir Fayyaz as absconders, while Zara Elahi, Ahmed Farhan, and Saghim Abbas were mentioned as being out on bail.

The FIA requested that the court freeze the properties of all nine accused.
