ISLAMABAD: Outgoing Director General Customs Intelligence and Investigation (I and I) Lutfullah Virk has given his precious 34 years to the government.
In his career, he is known as honest and punctual officer who never indulged in any kind of wrongdoing. He has not taken any illegal benefit from his department and he has maintained department’s discipline.
He spent his last year of government service as Director General Customs Intelligence (I and I). Last year of his service will be remembered for a long time in Federal Board of Revenue ((FBR), as he put his entire attention and efforts to curb smuggling from the country. He has directed to conduct number of crackdowns/operations in his tenure. He punished corrupt officers and awarded the honest officers of the department.
In his efforts against smuggling, he has done solid operations against Iranian diesel smugglers and curbed the smuggling. In a recent single raid, he confiscated more than 500,000 liters of smuggled Iranian diesel. Pakistan State Oil (PSO) has awarded him for his countless efforts to stop smuggling of Iran diesel.
He got fame from Noshera raid, where the Customs had impounded a container loaded with explosive material which could possibly be used for terrorism. Director General (DG) Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) has also praised his services, especially impounding of container loaded with explosive material.
Now after the retirement, he is not willing to do more government job but has decided to provide his expertise for government of Pakistan whenever needed.
