Personal penalties for alleged abetment of gold smuggling require proof beyond uncorroborated accomplice statements and suspicion. Where no incriminating article or alleged syndicate mobile connection was recovered from the Customs Hawaldar, the accomplice statement lacked corroboration in material particulars.
