Personal penalties for participation in smuggling were sustained where the appellant and customs broker conspired with de facto importers to clear containers concealing prohibited R-22 gas and admitted acting for monetary consideration. This conduct established a serious role in the smuggling operation. Directorate of Revenue Intelligence officers appointed as customs officers and assigned proper-officer functions may issue show cause notices for customs-duty recovery. Assessment and recovery of short-paid duty are distinct statutory functions, so the earlier contrary jurisdictional view did not invalidate the notice. The jurisdictional challenge failed and the appeal was dismissed.
