Decided on: Mar-21-1990

Reported in: (1990)(49)ELT235TriDel

1. Both these cases arise out of the same order in original and therefore they are being disposed of by this common order.2. The learned counsel states that in these cases a consignment of cigarette lighters was booked at Bangkok for Kabul and was being transhipped through Delhi when it was detained, examined and seized by the Delhi Customs on 11-11-1985.3. A show cause notice was issued in May 1986 asking the appellants to show cause as to why the goods should not be confiscated under Section 111(d) and they should not be penalised under Section 112.4. The appellant Shri Avtar Singh of Bangkok was the consigner and the appellant Shri Saran Singh of Kabul was the consignee.5.

ORDERB. N. Kirpal, J.1. Rule D.B.2. The challenge in this writ petition is essentially to the order dated 23rd February, 1990 passed under Section 31A of the Delhi Development Act, 1957.
