1970 (10) TMI 27 - SC - CustomsWhether for breach of a condition of the licence penalty may be imposed under Section 5 of the Imports and Exports (Control) Act, 1947, read with the Sea Customs Act, 1878? Held that:- The High Court was right in holding that the scope of power under the Sea Customs Act was not enlarged by the amendment to Section 5 of the Imports and Exports (Control) Act, and there is nothing in the amended Section 5 of the Imports and Exports (Control) Act which warrants the view that the provisions of the Sea Customs Act, 1878, may be invoked to punish the breach of a condition of a licence granted under the Imports and Exports (Control) Act, 1947. Appeal dismissed.
