Surveillance concerns surface after a WIRED investigation finds code related to a facial recognition system tied to Meta's smart glasses
At an undisclosed test site, a helicopter takes off, towing a kite-like array of massive coils. The system, called Airborne Transient Electromagnetic (Atem) detection, works by firing a powerful pulse of electricity through a giant transmitter coil. This creates a brief, strong electromagnetic field that penetrates the ground or water. When the pulse is turned off, the magnetic field induces tiny, decaying “eddy currents” in any conductive material it hits. These currents, in turn, create their...

ISLAMABAD: The Islamabad High Court (IHC) has set aside the government’s decision to deny foreign postings to several selected Trade and Investment Officers, ruling that executive authorities cannot deprive individuals of accrued rights on the basis of undisclosed intelligence reports that are neither shared with the affected persons nor produced before the court. In a detailed 26-page judgement, Justice Raja Inaam Ameen Minhas declared unlawful the Ministry of Commerce’s decision to withhold the appointments of successful candidates solely on the basis of adverse assessments attributed to the Intelligence Bureau (IB). The petitioners were represented by advocates Kashif Ali Malik, Barrister M. Saad Buttar, and Syed Hasnain Ibrahim Kazmi, who argued that the government could not reverse a completed merit-based selection process through secret vetting reports that were never disclosed to the candidates. They maintained that the petitioners had acquired vested rights after obtaining approval from the competent authority and completing all mandatory requirements for foreign postings. Selected candidates had completed tests, interviews, training, pre-departure formalities The dispute arose from the recruitment process for Trade and Investment Officers for Pakistan’s trade missions abroad, initiated in December 2024. According to the record, the candidates successfully cleared written examinations, psychometric assessments, and interviews. They received approval from the prime minister, completed mandatory training, and fulfilled all pre-departure formalities. Despite completing every stage of the process, several officers were denied final appointment letters after being declared “not suitable for posting abroad” by a special vetting agency. The court observed that the commerce ministry itself was unaware of the reasons behind the adverse recommendations and had acted merely on a bare conclusion communicated by the IB.

MPs urged to push for ‘radical reform’ after NAO finds former prince made income from Royal Lodge properties Campaigners have called for radical reform and a public inquiry into “all royal finances” after revelations that Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor received an undisclosed private income from subletting three cottages on his Royal Lodge estate while paying a “peppercorn rent”. A report from the public spending watchdog, the National Audit Office (NAO), found the rental income went to the former Duke of York, but said: “We do not know what rent was charged.” Continue reading...

King footing bill for Beatrice and Eugenie, and Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh subletting among findings A report that revealed Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor received undisclosed private income from subletting three cottages on his Royal Lodge estate in Windsor while paying a peppercorn rent to the crown estate also shines a spotlight on the property arrangements of other members of the royal family. The National Audit Office findings include the revelation that King Charles foots the bill for Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie’s accommodation in royal palaces, despite both being “non-working royals” (in that they don’t carry out royal duties), and that the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh also benefited from subletting their crown estate property.

• Field officers to lose powers to issue notices, conduct audits • Reforms aim to curb collusion, harassment • Phased rollout planned from October ISLAMABAD: The government has approved in principle a plan to introduce a centralised digital tax operating model, under which audits and assessments would be handled by “faceless” wings in Islamabad to reduce official discretion and direct contact between tax officials and taxpayers. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif approved Pakistan’s New Tax Operating Model on Thursday and commended the tax officials who developed the plan. The model is scheduled for a three-phase rollout beginning in October this year. The centralised and faceless tax model is similar to systems used in the UK, Australia, the Netherlands, Singapore and India. It is designed to eliminate physical contact between tax authorities and taxpayers to prevent corruption. The reforms have been driven by systemic leakages and widespread under-reporting detected by Pakistan Revenue Automation Limited (PRAL). Officials said the reforms were not only about curbing collusion or corruption but also about improving weak enforcement. FBR data revealed a major discrepancy in tax compliance: 8,697 individuals holding a combined Rs750 billion in bank deposits officially reported zero income in their tax returns. The same pattern was found across the financial sector, where 98.9 per cent of high-deposit individuals were found to have materially under-reported their bank flows. The real estate sector also showed similar evasion patterns. Despite maintaining active filer status, 80pc of top property purchasers were found to have systematically under-declared their transaction values to avoid their actual fiscal obligations. At present, a single tax official within a Regional Tax Office, Large Taxpayers Office or Corporate Tax Office handles the entire tax cycle — from identification and notice issuance to assessment and recovery. Officials said this concentration of duties granted immense discretionary powers, creating opportunities for taxpayer harassment, under-assessment and compromised recoveries. To address this, the new model introduces separate audit and assessment wings, both operating virtually and facelessly from a centralised hub in Islamabad. Under the proposed plan, Inland Revenue operations will be restructured into three functionally separate wings, each operating with a defined mandate, distinct statutory powers and non-overlapping responsibilities. The new framework will apply uniformly across income tax, sales tax and federal excise duty. The National Faceless Audit Wing (NFAW) will be established in Islamabad and operate from an undisclosed location. This centralised, fully digital and anonymous wing will conduct risk-based audits and continuous monitoring of withholding and advance taxes through a Central Data Hub. Case allocation will be algorithmic, and the wing will have no powers to issue demands or execute recoveries. It will be able to handle any taxpayer across the country. Taxpayers will not be allowed to visit the NFAW or submit manual documents. The National Assessment Wing (NAW), also based in Islamabad, will handle quasi-judicial functions. The anonymous and digital NAW will process assessment orders, show-cause notices, zero-rating refund approvals and exemptions, but will have no mandate for audits or field enforcement. Hearings will be held online, while dedicated hearing rooms will be established at tax offices across the country. The third wing, the Field Operation Wing, will serve as the enforcement arm of the system. It will be responsible for revenue recovery, prosecution, taxpayer registration, field verification and expansion of the tax base, but will have no authority to assess, adjudicate or modify tax demands. Field officers will now focus on data verification, assigned information, taxpayer facilitation and registration. For the first two wings, the government will post around 200 officers strictly on merit, with market-based salaries and enhanced surveillance to ensure credibility, transparency and accountability. The proposed reform is expected to tighten the net around tax evaders while reducing the compliance burden on honest taxpayers. This will be achieved mainly by eliminating officer-dependent compliance, as all interactions will be digitally logged through an online portal, ending direct contact with tax officials. To simplify filing, taxpayers will receive pre-populated returns powered by the Central Data Hub, which will automatically pull salary, banking, property and vehicle data to reduce filing time from hours to minutes. A single integrated taxpayer account will consolidate all income tax, sales tax and federal excise duty obligations, credits and refunds into a unified IRIS view. The updated system will also introduce predictable, time-bound processing with auto-escalation features to give taxpayers certainty on contingent liabilities. The FBR will also retain the authority to independently transition tax appeals into a faceless, phased format. Published in Dawn, June 5th, 2026
ISLAMABAD: The Federal Constitutional Court (FCC) on Thursday emphasised that appointments to important public offices must demonstrably conform to constitutional standards of fairness, transparency, institutional integrity and merit-based governance. “Public authority cannot be exercised on undisclosed considerations, nor can structured procedures be reduced to empty formalities,” observed Justice Rozi Khan Barrech in a judgement he authored. Justice Barrech was a member of a three-judge FCC bench, headed by Justice Syed Hasan Azhar Rizvi, while hearing an appeal filed by Sifatullah Khan against a March 5, 2026, Peshawar High Court (PHC) order setting aside his appointment as chairman of the Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (BISE), Bannu, in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The FCC observed that the legitimacy of public administration depended not merely on the existence of power, but on the disciplined and transparent exercise of that power in accordance with the law. Court upholds PHC ruling setting aside appointment of BISE Bannu chairman It upheld the PHC order, stating that it did not suffer from any legal or constitutional infirmity warranting interference by the FCC. The petitioner had challenged the PHC verdict that not only set aside his May 13, 2025, appointment notification but also directed the controlling authority to entrust the duties of chairman to another suitable person within three months. When the post of BISE Bannu chairman fell vacant, applications were invited from eligible candidates. Through a notification dated Feb 2, 2021, the controlling authority constituted a search and scrutiny committee to interview shortlisted candidates for the post. Under its terms of reference (ToRs), the committee was mandated to evaluate and interview shortlisted candidates and recommend a panel of three officers for each post for approval by the KP chief minister. The committee conducted interviews on Sept 26, 2024. Later, the committee recommended three names, but dropped that of the petitioner. The recommendations were forwarded through various secretaries and later placed before the KP chief minister for approval. The controversy arose when a revised summary was prepared, placing the petitioner’s name at serial number four. He was subsequently appointed on deputation for three years through a notification dated Sept 13, 2025, ignoring the committee’s recommendations entirely. ‘Doctrine of pleasure’ In his judgement, Justice Barrech observed that the “doctrine of pleasure, or the existence of administrative discretion, cannot be invoked to legitimise a process which, on its face, departs from the very mechanism devised by the executive itself”. The FCC observed that administrative decisions affecting public appointments must disclose the basis for any departure from the prescribed procedure. It added that silence on the record in this regard was fatal to the validity of such action. “The doctrine of pleasure, in its constitutional and administrative sense, does not confer an unfettered licence upon the executive to act in disregard of self-imposed procedural discipline,” the judgement held. It added that while the executive might, subject to law, appoint and remove public functionaries, the exercise of such power remained subject to the rule of law and the constitutional obligation to act fairly and rationally.
