Container storage charges - The High Court upheld the decision of the single judge, stating that since the goods were indeed confiscated by customs authorities while in transit, the port trust was justified in levying container storage charges. The appellant's inactivity after requesting permission to de-stuff the goods did not absolve them of liability. The court dismissed the appellant's argument that containers could not be considered "goods" under the Customs Act. It upheld the legality of the customs authorities' orders of confiscation, as they had the power to confiscate both goods and containers under Section 111(d) of the Customs Act.
