Islamabad: Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Qazi Faez Isa Wednesday fined the Income Tax Commissioner for wasting court time.
According to details, a three-member bench headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan Qazi Faez Isa heard the review case regarding the tax assessment authority of the Income Tax Commissioner in Supreme Court, in which the court made important observations.
Meanwhile, the court imposed a fine of Rs10,000 on the Income Tax Commissioner for wasting the time of the court and ordered him to pay the fine to a welfare organization and submit the receipt within a week.
The court directed the Federal Bureau of Revenue (FBR) to upload all orders and notifications on the website.
