Gujrat: 15,000 fake arms licenses cause millions of loss
Atleast 15,000 fake arms licenses have been captured from Gujrat which caused loss worth millions to the Punjab government, Dunya News reported on Tuesday. DPO Gujrat Agha Nawazish Ali said that more or less 15,000 fake arms licenses have been recovered from the arms license branch which are not present in any record. All the licenses were made after 2009 which have now been cancelled while FIRs have been lodged against those who made the fake licenses. According to the sources, staff of the arms branch maintained an independent register in which arms licenses were listed down after taking fees but the amounts were never deposited in the national exchequer. This serious criminal act incurred loss worth millions of rupees to the provincial government.
