Customs penalty was unsustainable where no show cause notice was served on the appellant and he was denied a proper hearing, breaching natural justice. The Tribunal also held that personal penalties on a director could not stand without credible evidence of active role, knowledge, or a specific act or omission attracting Sections 112(a), 112(b) or 114AA.
