Praise be to Allah.
If it is as you describe, there is no zakaat due on the money mentioned, because it comes under the rulings of waqf (endowment), whether it is frozen or is actively circulating in business. It is not permissible to pay zakaat into this fund, because it is not devoted especially to the poor and is not intended for any of the other purposes for which zakaat should be used. And Allaah knows best.
