Appellate Tribunal overturns Customs Commissioner's order on seized medicinal powder security.

The Appellate Tribunal CESTAT, New Delhi set aside the impugned order-in-original regarding the appropriation of a security amount by the Commissioner of Customs. The appeal was allowed as no evidence supported illegal import of medicinal powder found in the intercepted truck, and the appellants, as financers, were not given the opportunity to produce the truck for confiscation.
