ISLAMABAD: The Supreme Court (SC) on Wednesday ordered re-inquiry against a Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) officer over illegal tax refunds. Do you not catch an officer involved in misconduct?” the chief justice asked the FBR officer who appeared before the court. The bench dismissed the matter with an order of re-inquiry against the officer within three months. He had challenged his removal in the Federal Service Tribunal (FST) which acquitted him from the alleged charges with the ruling that no evidence was found against the petitioner to support the allegations. After investigating the matter, the fact-finding committee of the FBR had recommended initiating a regular inquiry against Ashfaq Ali Tuneuo.
