It noted the failure to cross-examine Mr. BSB made his statement inadmissible. - The Tribunal concluded that the appellant presented cogent evidence of the gold's legitimate source through business records and testimonies, which were supported by the refinery's confirmation of melting and refining the gold. - The Tribunal allowed the appeals, setting aside the impugned orders.
