2020 (4) TMI 800 - AT - CustomsPrinciples of natural justice - opportunity for cross-examination of Panch witnesses and DRI officers - HELD THAT:- The appellant’s request for cross-examination of Panch witnesses as also the officers is prima facie genuine request so as to complete the adjudication proceedings judiciously. In as much as the Panch witnesses have already been allowed cross-examination, though according to the learned advocate they have not appeared during any of the hearings so fixed for the said purpose, we deem it fit to direct the Adjudicating Authority to ensure the appearance of Panch witnesses during the next date of hearing to be fixed by him. Appeal allowed by way of remand.
