FBR stonewalls Senate panel on tobacco tax data; FIA to probe Badshah Wazir case
The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) failed to provide tobacco tax data to a Senate sub-committee, prompting demands for a 20-year record of tax collections and pending dues. The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) is investigating Badshah Wazir's corruption case, which involves alleged smuggling of raw materials for tax-exempt areas.
