Pakistani cricketer Sohaib Maqsood has alleged that a car showroom owner in Multan committed a major fraud involving the sale of his vehicle worth Rs. 14 million (1.4 crore).
In a post on social media, the cricketer claimed the dealer sold his car without obtaining the original documents, which Maqsood still possesses, and later gave him another vehicle with fake papers, taking an additional Rs 7 million from him.
Sharing his ordeal on X (formerly Twitter), Maqsood appealed to Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz Sharif, Punjab Police, and other provincial authorities to take notice of the matter and help him recover his losses.
“If being a national cricketer, I’m helpless, I can only imagine what ordinary citizens must go through. We need to protect people’s hard-earned money from such fraudsters,” he wrote.

Maqsood further revealed that he located his original car after eight months in Lahore, parked at a private residence. When he confronted the person in possession of the vehicle, the man allegedly refused to return it, claiming to have purchased it. “I told him the car legally belongs to me and that I could go to the police, but he said even the police couldn’t take it away,” Maqsood said.
The cricketer urged authorities to launch a thorough investigation and take strict legal action against those involved, emphasizing the need to protect innocent citizens from similar scams and restore public faith in the justice system.
Government should help him. First through investigation should be done and if Moqsood found true he should be helped and if found guilty he should also be punished. But atleast first step should be taken to investigate the incident without any biseness
