Tiwana has sought retirement with effect from August 15th – six months ahead of reaching the age of superannuation.
Sources said that the FBR chief dispatched the retirement request to the Prime Minister’s Office and the finance minister on Monday evening.
Sources revealed that the senior officers of FBR did not cooperate with Tiwana.
