2011 (7) TMI 929 - KERALA HIGH COURTConfiscation - It is stated that department has obtained evidence to the effect that the Import Export Code holders in whose name the imports are effected have lent their names and Import Export Code numbers for monetary consideration and every time a consignment is imported, documents are signed by the Import Export Code holders and handed over to the racketeers and their agents - Held that: Court will not be justified in interfering with the matter exercising its extra ordinary power under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. On the other hand, what is required is that the adjudication under the Customs Act should be completed on an expeditious basis - In so far as Section 110A relied on by the learned counsel for the petitioner is concerned, a reading of the said section gives me the impression that the Section does not create any vested right on an importer like the petitioner and that too in a case of this nature, to claim release of the goods - the writ petition is disposed of
