LAHORE: The Customs Appellate Tribunal accepted an appeal and set aside an Order-in-Original passed by the adjudication authority in an appeal of Ibraheem Majeed versus Collector of Customs (Appraisement) Lahore.
As per brief facts of the case, an imported consignment of tractor parts like pistons and pins from Turkey was mis-declared by the importer. During the course of audit, the customs authorities found some illegalities and charged some amount from the importer which was short-paid by him.
The appellant did not agree with the department and filed a case with the Customs Appellate Tribunal and challenged the assessment and examination by the department and prayed to the court for fresh speaking order.
After hearing the arguments, the Customs Appellate Tribunal has set aside the order of the earlier authority and allowed the appeal by the complainant.
