FCC Orders New Test for Seized Chemical
• Says goods be released if substance is not smuggled Iranian petrol • Questions risks of keeping fuel-laden tankers impounded for nearly three years ISLAMABAD: The Federal Constitutional Court (FCC) on Wednesday ordered fresh testing of a seized chemical within two weeks by a laboratory approved by the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (Ogra) to determine whether the substance was light aliphatic hydrocarbon (LAH) or, as alleged by Customs authorities, smuggled Iranian petrol
The Federal Constitutional Court (FCC) has mandated a new laboratory test within two weeks to identify a seized chemical. The examination will determine if the substance is light aliphatic hydrocarbon (LAH) or smuggled Iranian petrol, as claimed by customs officials. The court indicated that the goods should be released if the substance is confirmed to be LAH.
During the hearing, the FCC expressed significant concern over the risks associated with keeping fuel-laden tankers impounded for almost three years. The court questioned who would be liable for potential accidents, such as a fire, and noted the prolonged unemployment faced by tanker drivers.
This case highlights the critical need for timely resolution of seized goods and the potential dangers of impounding volatile substances for extended periods, impacting both public safety and economic livelihoods.
