In a dramatic turn of events, Sarim Burney, the prominent head of the Sarim Burney Welfare Trust International, was arrested upon his arrival at Karachi Airport from the United States. The charges against him are grave: human trafficking. According to FBI sources, Burney is accused of trafficking more than 25 children to the US and facilitating their illegal adoption in the country.
The arrest was a collaborative effort between the FBI and an international agency, highlighting the severity of the allegations. Burney, a Pakistani businessman and selfless humanitarian, has dedicated himself to the cause of social justice through his non-profit organization, the Sarim Burney Welfare Trust.
As the chairman of this trust, Burney has tirelessly served the oppressed and less privileged population. The trust’s mission extends to providing legal aid, combating poverty, and addressing issues such as child abuse, harassment, sexual assault, and domestic violence.
