122 Shipping Containers put on hold by JNCH at JN Port over suspected Contraband from China

The containers are alleged to have been brought through false declarations. The CIU has issued an order stating that it has received confidential intelligence related to these containers.

The CIU has instructed all managers of Container Freight Stations (CFS) and terminals to submit details of the containers, including bills of entries, assessment, and examination status, via email with the subject ‘Monday Hold’.

 

According to reliable sources, the search and examination of these containers is a lengthy and complex process. As a result, it has been decided that the Deputy Commissioner (DC) of several Container Freight Stations (CFS) and docks will examine the containers on their premises. They will focus on the containers marked as “hold” and examine the bill of entry for any mis-declared items.

In a two-month-long operation, the DRI and customs inspected all 2,500 containers, leading to the seizure of banned items from more than 50 containers. Those involved were not only served show-cause notices but also faced penalties amounting to crores of rupees.
