ISLAMABAD: The Federal Investigation Agency’s (FIA) Anti-Human Trafficking Circle (AHTC) in Lahore has officially declared Sehar Amir Tarar, the CEO of Second Passport World, as a fugitive.
As per details, the FIA is now seeking public assistance in locating her, following her involvement in a large-scale immigration and visa fraud scheme.
Sehar Amir Tarar, along with her husband Amir Zafar Khan, both U.S. nationals, fled Pakistan in March 2024 after skipping pre-arrest bails. The couple allegedly swindled billions of rupees from the general public under the pretense of offering immigration and visa services. The duo has since become the subject of multiple First Information Reports (FIRs), highlighting their fraudulent activities. Sehar’s brother, Muzaffar Ali Tarar, who was also involved in the scheme, remains in Pakistan. His bail request was rejected on September 18, 2024.
The FIA has initiated legal actions against Sehar and her accomplices, with six FIRs filed in Lahore alone. According to recent court orders dated March 15, 2025, and September 25, 2024, the Special Judge Central has issued directives, including the declaration of Sehar Amir Tarar as a fugitive.
The special court has directed the federal investigation agency (FIA) to contact US Embassy in Islamabad to bring Accused Sehar Amir Tarar a Proclaimed Offender (PO) back.
In a decision, court said that a photograph of the accused should be circulated on social media and electronic media. The photograph should also be forwarded by the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to the U.S. Embassy in Islamabad to inform them that a proclaimed offender from this country is residing peacefully in their country.
The court has also instructed the FIA to make her status known via social and electronic media. Additionally, the FIA has been ordered to approach the U.S. Embassy in Islamabad, providing them with her photograph and formally requesting her extradition. The court further emphasized that red warrants should be issued through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to facilitate her arrest.
SHO had stated in court that no details regarding the movable or immovable property of the accused, Sehar Amir Tarar (PO), could be produced.
The SHO stated that he had just taken over the charge two days earlier. He is directed to submit a list of the properties of the accused without fail on the next date of hearing. His signature has been obtained on the order sheet in this regard.
The SHO is further instructed to pursue the matter in liaison with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs regarding the issuance of red notices for the arrest of the accused. He shall also appear in person on the next date.
The FIA’s investigation reveals that Sehar and her associates defrauded a vast number of people by promising immigration services and visas through their company, Second Passport World. The court has directed authorities to seize her assets and investigate her financial dealings.
During a recent hearing, the Station House Officer (SHO) reported that details about Sehar’s movable and immovable properties have not yet been provided. The SHO, who had recently taken over the case, was directed to submit the property list at the next hearing. Furthermore, the court ordered him to coordinate with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to expedite the issuance of red notices for Sehar’s arrest and personally appear in court on the next date of hearing.
The FIA continues to pursue the matter and urges the public to come forward with any information regarding Sehar Amir Tarar’s whereabouts to aid in the investigation and bring her to justice.
