February 28, 2024

Case Laws     Customs     HC

Application for Grant of bail - smuggling foreign origin gold - No duty paid - The High court ultimately rejected the bail application, citing the materials collected during the investigation, which indicate his possession of smuggled gold bars valued at a significant amount. The decision is based on the provisions of Section 135(1)(b)(i)(A) of the Customs Act, which renders the offense non-bailable considering the value of the seized goods.
