KARACHI: The Customs Department’s Law Branch has decided around 42 cases during the first 25 days of July. These cases were pending from the last few years.
Sources in the Customs House told this correspondent that after renovation of the Law Branch at Customs House, proceedings were held speedily, and those cases which were pending from quite some time were finalised along with new cases.
Sources further revealed that after the computerisation of data, a case priority is given to those cases which are pending without any proceedings. Now these cases are under process and will be finalised according to schedule, they said.
Sources said that computerisation of cases takes at least four months, because it was not a hard nut to crack to computerise data of 20 years. Now all record of cases has been computerised, they said.
The Law Branch authorities have asked the officials concerned to speed up the process of all pending cases and try to decide these cases on merit and according to schedule.
