Challenge to the detention/impounding of rubber process oil ...


Importer challenges detention of rubber oil, alleging improper testing & lack of test report.

Case Laws     Customs

October 26, 2024

Challenge to the detention/impounding of rubber process oil imported by the petitioner. The key points are: The sample was tested by a Chemical Examiner, but it is unclear if the examiner was recognized as per the relevant circular. The test report dated 31.12.2014 was allegedly not provided to the petitioner, preventing them from opposing the detention/unclearing of the goods as per rules and regulations. The High Court allowed the petition, likely directing the respondents to release the goods and potentially pay compensation for the improper detention.
