of <h1>New Customs Act Guidelines: Arrests for High-Value Smuggling or Fraud Only in Exceptional Cases Above Set Thresholds.</h1> The revised guidelines for arrest and bail under the Customs Act, 1962, establish specific criteria for exercising arrest powers. Arrests should occur only in exceptional cases, such as unauthorized importation or smuggling of high-value goods worth Rs. 50 lakh or more, or fraudulent evasion of duty and misdeclaration involving Rs. 2 crore or more. The guidelines also address fraudulent drawback claims and obtaining instruments through deceitful means. Exceptions to these value thresholds apply to offenses involving items like counterfeit currency, arms, antiques, wildlife, and endangered species. The guidelines are to be circulated among relevant authorities for implementation.
