HC ordered the release of personal jewelry (318g and 597g) seized from Petitioners at IGI Airport upon their return from the USA. The court determined the items were personal effects of Indian citizens returning after attending a family event abroad. Despite the detention occurring in July 2024, no show cause notice had been issued by customs authorities. The court found no justification for continued detention and directed release of the jewelry within four weeks to Petitioners or their authorized representative, subject to verification, with no storage charges to be collected by Customs. Petition disposed of.
