The Vanguard Institute of Medical and Sciences in Islamabad was closed because of accusations that its paramedical staff had fake degrees.
The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), which has filed lawsuits against the college’s management and staff, confirmed the college’s closure due to a fake degree scandal.
Raids have intensified as part of a recent campaign to capture people behind this fraudulent organization.
According to the FIA spokesperson, the inquiry revealed a concerning pattern of cooperation between the Pakistan Nursing and Midwifery Council and the college administration that resulted in the awarding of phony degrees.

Furthermore, it has come to light that the faculty list supplied by the college management was falsified, raising questions about the academic institution’s credibility.
