KARACHI: The Sindh High Court has issued notices to the Customs officials for March 15 in a case pertaining to Indian fabric import case.
A SHC appellate bench, comprising JusticeMunib Akhtar and Justice Mrs Ashraf Jahan, heard a lawyer appearing for the petitioner N.J Textiles which imported raw material from India. The consignment was detained by the Directorate of Intelligence and Investigations which was then challenged before the adjudicating authority. An Order in Original was also passed but the same was not implemented forcing the petitioner to file the instant petition.
The counsel for petitioner told the bench on Monday that the consignment was detained on ground that it was white in color while on physical examination the color of cotton was found to be pink.
The counsel sought release of vehicle as well as imported item. The bench after hearing initial arguments fixed March 15 for a final hearing summoning the concerned officials of Pakistan Customs.
