The arrested individual, Noor Muhammad, was found to be engaged in unauthorized exchange of both local and international currencies, a spokesperson for the FIA told here Saturday. Notably, the apprehended suspect was also implicated in foreign currency transactions without possessing the required license. The raid yielded the recovery of 2600 US dollars, 650 UAE dirhams and 3.1 million rupees from the accused.
