Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) Chairman Rashid Mahmood has suspended a BS-18 customs official for extraneous influence on FBR for “choice posting”.
According to a notification issued by the FBR on Monday, on account of violation of the directions of the Chairman, FBR / Secretary Revenue Division issued vide circular dated August 20, 2024, regarding extraneous influence for “choice posting”, the Competent Authority, in the exercise of powers conferred under Rule 5(1) of the Civil Servants (Efficiency & Discipline) Rules, 2020, has placed Jawad-ul-Hassan, PCS/BS-18, presently posted as Deputy Collector, Collectorate of Customs Enforcement, Dera Ismail Khan under suspension with immediate effect for a period of 120 days, it added.
Through another notification, the FBR has transferred a Customs Intelligence officer from the “Admin Pool” to the Directorate General of Customs Intelligence Islamabad.
Earlier, FBR with the approval of Chairman FBR circulated a letter to all departments exerting pressure for “choice postings” by the officers/ officials of FBR, particularly, those seeking field assignments.
Such sub-culture is eating at the very roots of the integrity of the organization, the chairman said in the letter. Moreover, mid-level officers seeking choice postings through their influence/ network are creating a poor model of career choices for junior officers.
Use of extraneous influence constitutes “misconduct” under the Government Servants (Conduct) Rules, 1964, and the Civil Servants (E&D) Rules, 2020.
They only found one?
Anyone not accepting the posting offered should be put at the end of the list. I once heard that the Foreign Office had decided to do this.
Jawad ul Hassan is a decent man. From being a sub-inspector in police, he cleared CSS to avoid police culture. He only wanted to get out of DI Khan due to terrorism threats. But the present Chairman FBR who himself got “Choice posting” from PAS to FBR. Haha
I don’t trust this,maybe he tried to expose some dirty works and got suspended with an excuse.the position of this department is top regarding corruption.
