<h1>Customs Officers Empowered to Search Individuals for Concealed Goods Under Section 101 of Customs Act, 1962</h1> Under Section 101 of the Customs Act, 1962, customs officers, authorized by a general or special order from the Principal Commissioner or Commissioner of Customs, can search individuals suspected of concealing goods liable for confiscation. This authority is applicable if there is a reasonable belief that a person has hidden goods such as gold, diamonds, gold or diamond products, watches, or other goods specified by the Central Government through notification. This provision operates alongside Section 100, enhancing officers' powers to prevent smuggling and ensure compliance with customs regulations.
