FBR strongly reacts over media reports of flight of dollars from Pakistan

Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has categorically rebutted the unfounded,malicious in intent and misleading in content a propaganda being advancedby some irresponsible elements that there was huge flight of dollars fromPakistan.

It is further clarified that previously the bilateral trade betweenPakistan and Afghanistan was carried out in US Dollars but now the same isbeing con-ducted in Pak Rupees.

Furthermore, FBR has taken very stringent en-forcement measures at theAirports to eliminate the possibility of any such an unethical practice.

Paki-stan Customs has made it mandatory for all passen-gers flying out ofcountry to undergo a thorough personal scrutiny and 100 % declaration ofcurrency through an automated process in order to ward off this nefariousillegal activity. This leaves little pos-sibility of the subjectundesirable practice.
