ISLAMABAD: Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has initiated proceedings against its officers, who were found involved in regularization of smuggled vehicles. A press release issued by the FBR here on Wednesday said that in pursuit of its ongoing transformation agenda, the board continues to prioritize transparency, accountability, and institutional integrity. A key pillar of this reform effort is the establishment of internal checks and a policy of zero tolerance towards corrupt practices. This includes profiling of FBR’s workforce based on integrity and initiating disciplinary and criminal action where needed. It may be recalled that in order to strengthen control mechanisms and prevent the misuse of auctioned vehicles, FBR in August 2021 introduced the ‘Auction Module’ in its WeBOC system. APP
