KARACHI: The Sindh High Court has issued notices to the DG Valuation and other respondents for Feb 27.
The SHC appellate bench, comprising Justice Munib Akhtar and Justice Mrs Ashraf Jahan, issued notices to the DG Valuation and others in three identical petitions filed by importers of tiles.
Ashraf Traders, Euro Tiles and Amin Tiles filed the petitions challenging a circular issued by the DG Valuation. A lawyer representing the petitioners submitted that while Valuation Ruling is pending,, the respondents under Danish Jahangiri case decided by the apex court cannot deny the benefit of section 81 of the Pakistan Custom Act 1969. The denial of release is illegal and damaging to the petitioners, the counsel submitted.
