Hundreds of Pakistanis and Indians have been linked to offshore companies through the Panama Papers. The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists released a massive database with hundreds of thousands of entity names today, just as promised. Journalists from all over the world have been digging through it for the names of people from their home countries.
259 Pakistanis named in the Panama Papers
The Panama Papers are a massive data leak of 11.5 million documents from Panamanian law form Mossack and Fonseca, which specializes in setting up offshore entities. Although it isn’t illegal to have or set up an offshore account or company, often this is done for the purpose of hiding cash or dodging taxes. As a result, anyone whose name is in the Panama Papers database that was released today is at risk of receiving a lot of bad press—whether or not they’re actually doing anything wrong.
In all there were 259 Pakistanis named as having links with offshore entities in the database that was released today. Among them are former Port Qasim Authority General Manager Abdul Sattar Dero; famous musician and activist Salman Ahmad; Imran Khan’s aide Zulfikar Abbas Bokhari; Oscar-winning filmmaker Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy’s mother Saba Obaid; former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto’s cousin Tariq Islam; and Shaukat Ahmed, former president of the Karachi Chamber of Commerce.
The full list of Pakistanis named in the Panama Papers is at the end of this article.
1,000 Indians named in Panama Papers database
While 259 Pakistanis being named in the Panama Papers may sound like a lot, there are more than 1,000 Indians named in them. Among the Indians who were reportedly linked with offshore entities are film stars Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Amitabh Bachchan; the Garware family of Mumbai, and the DLF Group’s KP Singh.
