Correct answer
A. Vehicles used in smuggling are subject to immediate confiscation without the option of payment.
Explanation
Explanation: Under a recent amendment to SRO 499 of 2009, the FBR has implemented a policy where vehicles or means of transport used to move smuggled goods are immediately confiscated without the option of paying a fine. This change aims to strengthen the government’s anti-smuggling efforts and close loopholes that previously allowed offenders to reclaim their vehicles. The new measure closes a loophole, ensuring that the tools used in smuggling operations are permanently removed from circulation. FBR Chairman Rashid Mahmood Langrial has called for immediate action by Customs officials and law enforcement agencies to enforce this amendment through coordinated efforts and ensure that all conveyances used in smuggling activities, once impounded, are permanently removed from operation.
