Pakistan’s Supreme Court on Thursday ordered Prime Minister Imran Khan’s sister Aleema Khanum to pay a hefty ₹2,940 crore in taxes and fine within a week in the foreign assets case.
A three-judge bench, while hearing a case against 44 politically exposed individuals who possess properties in the UAE, remarked that failure on Khanum’s part to honour the court orders will result in confiscation of her properties.
The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) told the court that a fine and tax worth ₹2,940 crore has been imposed on Khanum, who has been identified as ostensible owner (benamidar) of a property.
Khanum, who was present with her lawyer in the court, said that she had bought the property in 2008 against USD 370,000 and that she had sold it in 2017 . The FBR in previous hearings submitted properties and tax details of Khanum.
