Interpol has issued Red Notices against Bahria Town owner Malik Riaz and his son Ali Riaz, National Accountability Bureau (NAB) Chairman Lt General (retired) Nazir Ahmed said on Wednesday.
A red notice is a request to law enforcement agencies by Interpol to locate and provisionally arrest a person pending extradition, surrender, or similar legal action.
Ahmed said the NAB was sending a team for the extradition of both Riaz and his son.
Riaz, 72, is the founder and chairman of Bahria Town, while his 48-year-old son serves as chief executive. In 2019, the pair agreed to forfeit £190m to Britain’s National Crime Agency (NCA) following an unexplained wealth order investigation. The settlement included proceeds from the sale of a £50m London mansion.
Riaz and his real estate company have been embroiled in legal woes in the past few years, with the tycoon being an absconder in the Al-Qadir Trust case. The NAB had started the process to extradite Riaz and his son from the UAE in January 2025.
