    Senate questions FBR over Rs1,120bn tax-exempt imports

    Islamabad: The Senate Sub Committee has raised serious questions over the Federal Board of Revenue’s failure to provide complete records related to Rs1120 billion worth of tax exempted imports in former FATA and PATA regions, while also seeking detailed tax information from major tobacco companies including Pakistan Tobacco Company and Philip Morris Pakistan Limited. The matter came up during a meeting of the Senate Sub Committee convened by Senator Saifullah Abro at Parliament House. The Committee was reviewing press freedom concerns, cigarette smuggling networks, tax evasion issues and possible misuse of duty exemption systems. At the beginning of the meeting, Pakistan Federal Union of Journalists President Afzal Butt raised concerns regarding remarks made about a private channel reporter during an earlier Committee meeting. Senator Saifullah Abro assured that the Committee respects every citizen and considers the media an important partner in highlighting national issues. He stated that the Committee would continue working on matters related to illegal tobacco trade and economic losses faced by the country. At the beginning of the meeting, Pakistan Federal Union of Journalists President Afzal Butt raised concerns regarding remarks made about a private channel reporter during an earlier Committee meeting. Senator Saifullah Abro assured that the Committee respects every citizen and considers the media an important partner in highlighting national issues. He stated that the Committee would continue working on matters related to illegal tobacco trade and economic losses faced by the country. The main focus of the meeting shifted towards the Federal Board of Revenue’s pending information regarding tax exempted areas. The Committee noted that raw materials worth Rs1120 billion entered tax exempt regions between 2018 and 2026 under exemption arrangements. Members expressed concern that manual tracking systems and a lack of automated verification could create risks of illegal movement of goods into taxable markets. The Committee once again directed FBR to provide complete details of consumption certificates issued against the Rs1120 billion imports and submit tax related information for the tobacco sector, especially regarding Pakistan Tobacco Company and Philip Morris Pakistan Limited. During the meeting, officials also discussed investigations into cigarette theft cases and illegal activities in the tobacco sector. The Federal Investigation Agency briefed the Committee about cigarette theft cases in Peshawar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The Committee also reviewed the investigation regarding senior officials and a tax charge sheet issued against Deputy Commissioner Inland Revenue Fahim Rashid in connection with Paramount Tobacco Company. Another serious matter discussed was the theft of 2,828 cigarette cartons from an FBR warehouse. The cartons were reportedly valued at Rs25 crore. The Committee directed FBR to prepare clear Standard Operating Procedures for registering, handling and managing seized goods to prevent such incidents in the future. The Committee also examined concerns related to cigarette smuggling and tax losses, stressing that illegal trade not only affects government revenue but also creates unfair competition for legal businesses. The meeting also discussed government advertisement spending and tobacco industry media campaigns. The Committee reviewed information provided by the Press Information Department and Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority and stressed the need for greater transparency in advertisement payments and media related spending. The meeting was attended by Senators Umer Farooq, Muhammad Talha Mehmood and Dilawar Khan as well as senior officials from the Ministry of Interior and Narcotics Control, Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, Press Information Department, FBR Inland Revenue, Customs, FIA, National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency and other relevant departments. Senator Saifullah Abro directed all concerned institutions to provide the required information and continue cooperation with the Committee. The Committee made it clear that investigations into tax exemptions, tobacco sector irregularities and smuggling networks would continue until complete records and explanations were provided.

    Counter-terror operations in Balochistan neutralize 12 militants

    Security forces in Pakistan have eliminated 12 high-risk terrorists during two separate operations across the southwestern province of Balochistan. According to official statements issued by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR), the media wing of the Armed Forces of Pakistan, the targeted anti-terror engagements took place in the districts of Washuk and Mastung as part of an intensified campaign against extremist elements operating within the region. The military reported that these synchronized Intelligence-Based Operations (IBOs) were initiated following precise tracking and surveillance of insurgent networks. The operations represent a significant operational success for law enforcement and defense personnel working to dismantle armed groups attempting to compromise regional stability. Key Highlights of the Counter-Terror Operations District Washuk: Initial tracking detected hostile movement in the area, leading to a swift operational response that resulted in six terrorists being neutralized. District Mastung: A subsequent targeted raid triggered an intense exchange of gunfire, during which six additional terrorists were eliminated and a major militant hideout was completely dismantled Total Impact: 12 terrorists killed, operational infrastructure destroyed, and significant cache of weapons and logistics seized. Breakdown of the Intelligence-Based Raids The first phase of the counter-terrorism effort unfolded in Washuk district, where security agencies identified suspicious tactical movements by a group of armed insurgents. Acting on real-time intelligence, military units deployed swiftly to intercept the suspects. Upon confronting the militants, a heavy firefight ensued, ending with the death of six terrorists before they could execute planned sabotage activities in the district. Shortly thereafter, a second high-stakes operation was executed in the Mastung district. Intelligence agencies pinpointed an active sanctuary utilized by militants as a staging ground for planning attacks against civilians and security personnel. As forces surrounded the hideout, the cornered insurgents opened fire in a desperate attempt to break through the security perimeter. The security forces responded with decisive tactical force, eliminating six militants on the spot and neutralizing the immediate threat. Following the gun battle, search teams thoroughly cleared the facility, recovering military-grade weaponry, ammunition, and explosives, while destroying the infrastructure used to harbor illegal insurgents. Strategic Significance and Broader Context The ISPR emphasized that these successful engagements reflect the unwavering commitment of the armed forces to cleanse the country of foreign-funded terrorism. Military officials reaffirmed that anti-terror operations will persist relentlessly until all hostile networks, their safe havens, and their local facilitators are completely eradicated across Pakistan.   Authorities have urged local communities to remain vigilant and cooperate with law enforcement agencies as comprehensive intelligence gathering and mop-up activities continue throughout the region.

    Two tribal elders killed in South Waziristan

    Two tribal elders were shot dead by unidentified armed men in the Zarmilan area of Toi Khulla tehsil in Lower South Waziristan on Sunday, according to police District Police Officer (DPO) Shah Hassan identified the victims as Haji Gul and Malik Badshah, both members of the Suleman Khel tribe. Police said the two elders were travelling from Gul Kach towards Zarmilan when gunmen opened fire on their vehicle near Darozanda. Both men sustained multiple bullet wounds and died at the scene, while the attackers escaped. Police registered a preliminary case at Toi Khulla police station and launched an investigation. DPO Hassan said officers were examining all possible aspects of the incident and working to identify and arrest the suspects. The killings come amid growing concerns over the deteriorating security situation in Lower South Waziristan. The district has witnessed a rise in targeted killings, bomb attacks, kidnappings for ransom, extortion and attacks on police and security personnel over the past 18 months. Tribal elders and their relatives have increasingly become targets of violence. The trend has raised concerns about the safety of influential tribal figures, who have traditionally helped resolve disputes and maintain peace through jirgas and other local mechanisms. In May, prominent tribal elder and chief of the Ahmadzai Wazir tribe, Malik Tariq Wazir, was among three people killed in an IED blast near Gulshan Plaza in Wana’s busy Rustam Bazaar. Four others suffered injuries in the explosion. Police said explosives had allegedly been planted near the plaza overnight and detonated in the morning as Malik Tariq passed through the market in a vehicle. He was considered an influential figure who played an active role in tribal jirgas and local dispute resolution. He had also been abducted by armed men in December 2024 but was later released following efforts by tribal elders and local mediators. In another incident in June 2026, unidentified gunmen killed two sons of prominent tribal elder Malik Jamil Wazir near Kari Kot Bazaar in Wana tehsil. The brothers were identified as Naveed Wazir and Moeenuddin Wazir.

    AJK orders re-polling at 23 stations in Bagh

    MUZAFFARABAD: The Azad Jammu and Kashmir Election Commission has ordered re-polling at 23 polling stations in two constituencies of Bagh district following disruptions during the third phase of the AJK elections. Re-polling will take place on August 15. It will cover nine polling stations in LA-15 Bagh Central and 14 polling stations in LA-16 Bagh East. The decision was taken after voting at several polling stations either failed to start on time or was disrupted and later cancelled. The four constituencies of Bagh and Haveli went to the polls on August 10. Elections in other parts of Poonch Division had earlier been delayed because of law and order concerns. In LA-15, PPP candidate Sardar Ziaul Qamar was leading according to unofficial results. He had secured 16,637 votes. PML-N candidate Mushtaq Ahmed Minhas was in second place with 15,015 votes. Jamaat-i-Islami candidate Brigadier (retd) Dr Mohammad Khan had received 12,259 votes. The nine polling stations scheduled for re-polling have more than 5,000 registered voters. Their votes could have a significant impact on the final result. Former AJK prime minister Sardar Tanveer Ilyas, who contested the constituency on the PTI ticket in the 2021 election, appeared to have fallen out of contention. A close contest was also reported in LA-16 Bagh East. PML-N candidate Sardar Mir Akbar was leading with 19,515 votes. PPP candidate Sardar Qamaruz Zaman had secured 16,290 votes. The 14 polling stations where re-polling has been ordered reportedly account for around 7,200 votes. Meanwhile, the Election Commission announced the preliminary result for LA-14 Dhirkot. Sajid Iqbal Abbasi of the Awami Dast-o-Bazu Party defeated Muslim Conference president Sardar Attique Ahmed Khan. Abbasi secured 40,522 votes, while Attique received 19,637 votes. The result marked a major setback for the Muslim Conference, which has historically been one of the region’s prominent political parties. The result of LA-17 Haveli also became controversial. PML-N candidate Chaudhry Mohsin Aziz demanded a recount and alleged irregularities in election documents. Aziz claimed that Form-24 documents from different polling stations had been altered. Election officials began examining the complaint. Ballot papers and other election material were also reportedly moved under security to Muzaffarabad for further counting and verification. Aziz called on PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari to support a recount. He claimed that results signed by presiding officers showed him leading by around 8,600 votes. However, state broadcaster Radio Pakistan, citing the Election Commission, reported that PPP candidate and AJK Prime Minister Faisal Mumtaz Rathore had won the LA-17 seat. The AJK elections are being held in three phases. The polls have taken place amid political tensions and law and order concerns in several parts of the region. The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz has so far secured 24 seats, while the Pakistan Peoples Party has won 10 constituencies, according to the available results. The first two phases also witnessed allegations of electoral irregularities, clashes and political disputes. Both major parties have traded accusations over the conduct of the elections. The third phase was originally planned across all 11 constituencies of Poonch Division. However, voting was allowed only in Bagh and Haveli because of security concerns.

    Oil slips as higher supplies ease market fears

    Global oil prices declined on Friday as increased crude shipments through key maritime routes helped calm supply concerns, despite continued geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and limited progress in diplomatic talks between the United States and Iran. Brent crude futures dropped by $1.03, or 1.2%, to trade at $88 per barrel, while US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude fell $1.50, or 1.8%, to $82.09 per barrel. Even with the daily decline, both international benchmarks remained on track to post monthly gains of around 20%. Market analysts said the fall in prices was mainly driven by improving oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz, one of the world’s most important energy shipping routes. The increase in exports helped offset fears that the ongoing regional conflict could lead to major supply disruptions. The Strait of Hormuz normally carries nearly one-fifth of the world’s crude oil and liquefied natural gas shipments. The route has remained under close watch since tensions escalated following the conflict involving the United States, Israel and Iran. At the same time, Saudi Arabia is working with regional partners to strengthen maritime security in strategic waterways, including the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden. These routes play a vital role in global energy transportation. According to Saudi officials, 14 countries have expressed support for the proposed multinational maritime defence initiative, aimed at improving the safety of commercial shipping in the region. Meanwhile, the security situation remains uncertain after Yemen’s Houthi movement announced a naval blockade targeting Saudi Arabia, raising fresh concerns over the safety of Red Sea shipping lanes, which serve as an alternative route for oil exports. Although oil tankers continue to pass through both the Strait of Hormuz and the Red Sea, traders say higher security risks have pushed up shipping costs and insurance premiums. These additional expenses continue to keep a geopolitical risk premium built into global oil prices.
