The SCRAs were presented by Pakistan Customs Directorate of Valuation Karachi. SHC bench, presided by Acting Chief Justice Mohammad Junaid Ghaffar and Justice Abdur Rahman, commented on the caliber of the questions and said that they were not appropriately worded.
The court also forwarded a copy of its order to the Appellate Tribunal, requesting them to act. This action highlights the importance of greater preparation and caution in legal pleadings for customs cases.
