PESHAWAR: The Peshawar High Court (PHC) on Monday issued show-cause notices to 15 steel exporting companies accused of evading taxes worth Rs513 billion.
A single-member bench comprising PHC Chief Justice Dost Muhammad Khan took suo motu notice of bail being issued to the accused parties and ordered cancellation of the bail notices.
Petitioner Haji Ahmads lawyer Advocate Noor Alam told the court his client, a customs clearing agent, had been accused of giving clearance to 15 companies, allowing them to supply steel products to Afghanistan.

Alam Advocate added the steel products were only exported to Afghanistan on paper and the products were actually sold in Pakistan in order to evade taxes. The real culprit has been granted bail by a lower court, while my client has been accused of the whole incident which is not based on facts, he argued.

The court then postponed Hajis bail and issued show-cause notices to the co-accused to appear before the court in the next hearing.

The companies include MS Supreme Tube Industry, MS Shaheen Pipe Industry, Modern Pipe Industry, Cabal Industry Faisalabad, Rewaj Steel Industry, Mehran Traders, Bashir Steel Industry, Ambareen Steel Industry and Noman Steel Industry.

Brownie points: Chief ministers visit brings out the brooms

DERA ISMAIL KHAN: The provincial governments month-long cleanliness drive which now seems to be in doldrums witnessed uncharacteristic vigour ahead of the chief ministers arrival in DI Khan on Sunday night.
Though the drive has been non-existent in the city since it was launched on September 10, a fake campaign was temporarily carried out to appease Chief Minister Pervez Khattak.
The entire municipal committee came out on the streets to clean Circular Road passing through the eastern side of the city the route expected to be taken by Khattak. The exercise was not part of the month-long drive, but was completed in a hurry a night ahead of the chief executives visit.

Banners strategically put up to catch Khattaks eye were also placed overnight. Passing through the now spotless Circular Road, one could see looming billboards. If there is any government official found involved in corruption, report him to the government, read one such sign.

The half-a-kilometre stretch of road, however, covers less than one percent of the citys area. And residents are not happy with the effort.
We request the chief minister to come to DI Khan again and again and pass through all the roads. Only then can we expect the whole city to be cleaned from the dirt, smell and dust we breathe in every day, said a local, Heshmath Khan. He (Khattak) should come to

Awanabad on his next visit and see the disgraceful conditions we live in, said Khan while referring to the locality he resides in.

Situated behind Circular Road, the sanitary conditions of Awanabad Colony are deplorable, with knee-deep sewage water accumulated on narrow congested roads.
DI Khan Deputy Commissioner Waqar Khan and Assistant Commissioner Irfanullah Mehsud also took part in the cleaning exercise. On September 8, Revenue Minister Ali Amin Gandapur said in a public meeting the provincial government has provided the citys municipal committee with a modern machine which has the capacity to clean dirt equal to seventy tractors. The city, however, is yet to witness the power of this machine.

When the chief minister takes a broom in his hand and shows us he really wants to clean the province, we will do it alongside him, said Attaullah, another resident of the city.
Meanwhile, Khattak in his address on Sunday night vowed to eliminate corruption and urged people to contact relevant authorities if they find any official guilty of fraud.

CM may be able to visit a place frequently but at least the residents of that place need to file complaints established the provincial govt and online if possible to that we as PTI supporters can also highlight those issues via forums.

for such steps.let them praise and encourage them to participate in such activities on monthly
basis and civil society ,school and colleges should be involved.These things happen all over the
