Pakistan is strengthening enforcement against crypto-related offenses by establishing a dedicated federal investigation unit, according to reports. Both outlets cite statements by a senior figure within the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), Muhammad Athar Waheed, who recommends that other agencies create similar specialized teams. The reported goal is to better address crimes connected to digital assets, including investigation and coordination across organizations that handle financial and cyber-related offenses. The reports characterize the move as an effort to step up crypto enforcement at the federal level and improve the focus and resources devoted to detecting and pursuing misconduct involving cryptocurrencies and related activity. While the outlets do not provide detailed operational specifics—such as the unit’s staffing, jurisdiction, or timeline—the central theme is that Pakistan is creating or activating a specialized body within the FIA to target digital asset crime more directly. The recommendation for other agencies to follow suggests an intended broader, multi-agency approach.
