Pakistani Beauty Queen Charged in Alleged Mortgage Scam Empty Pakistani Beauty Queen Charged in Alleged Mortgage Scam

But the fine print of the contracts allowed Jawad to withdraw everything from the escrow account. A number of victims lost their homes as a result.

Prosecutors have charged the couple with grand theft, because they say the Hasnains made no effort to get the loans modified, and never refunded any of the money, despite repeated pleas from their victims.

If convicted, Saman could face at least four years behind bars, and Jawad close to 20. But there's a catch.

Earlier this month, the couple left for Lahore, Pakistan -- leaving no indication they intend to return. Because Pakistan has no extradition treaty with the United States, it's possible the couple could stay there indefinitely, meaning they may never face trial in the United States.
