JUDGMENT : G.S. Patel, J. Rule. Respondents waive service. By consent, made returnable forthwith and taken up for hearing and final disposal. 2. The petition challenges the Order in Original dated 15th March 2017 issued by the Additional Commissioner of Customs, Custom House, Marmagoa. The Petitioners' case is that they were arrested on arrival at Dabolim airport on 12th March 2015 when they arrived in Goa on Qatar Airways flight No. QR 522 from Dubai. The Petitioners' case is that while it is true that they were carrying gold, this was in no sense contraband and there was no attempt to smuggle gold. Their case is that they were denied the opportunity to declare their goods because they were purportedly arrested at the aero-bridge ramp at the exit of the aircraft even before they arrived at the immigration counters and before they could approach the custom desks to declare their goods. 3. Mr. Rodrigues is at some pains to point out that the Petitioners' passports were seized at the aero bridge and the inward immigrations stamps were placed by the immigration authorities upon the Petitioners' passports being tendered by the Custom officials and not the Petitioners themselves. Indeed the Petitioners were even given customs declaration forms, a matter that seems to have added to the confusion. Those forms contain a declaration by the Petitioners of their gold goods. 4. The Petitioners repeatedly sought the production of CCTV footage to establish some of this. This is in fact Shri Rodrigues's complaint before us: that once the CCTV footage demonstrates these events, then no issue of smuggling at all remains. Of course, all this turns on what the CCTV footage does show. 5. On 16th August 2017 we passed an order requiring a transmission to this Court by the CJM Margao of the CCTV footage that have been earlier deposited with that Court. We now have those DVDs. We note from the impugned order that the authority has simply rejected the request for the CCTV documents on the ground that they are not relied on by the Revenue. This is immaterial. The accused in a case like this are not confined to using only the material relied on by the Revenue. They may also produce their own documents. We note from the impugned order that the authority has simply rejected the request for the CCTV documents on the ground that they are not relied on by the Revenue. This is immaterial. The accused in a case like this are not confined to using only the material relied on by the Revenue. They may also produce their own documents. It may happen that some of the documents that the accused require are in physical possession, custody or control of the Revenue or of other authorities. That evidence cannot be shut out or kept from the Petitioners on the ground that the Revenue has not relied on it. Even if the Revenue has not relied on it, the Petitioners may well do so to mount their defence. This portion of the impugned order is therefore unsustainable. It is equally conceivable that with the material at hand, an entirely different conclusion may result. 6. We set aside the impugned order. We will make rule absolute in terms of prayer clause (a) on this limited ground. 7. We make it clear that we have expressed no opinion on the other merits including the contention of the Revenue that the Petitioners were carrying not only an unusual but quite alarming amount of gold, well in excess of the permissible quantities, and therefore their intention or action of declaration, if any, is irrelevant. Our only conclusion is that the Petitioners must be given fullest opportunity to use all available material. 8. The Adjudicating Authority will reconsider the entire matter afresh in light of these DVDs. These are yet in a sealed cover. Copies of the DVDs will be made by the Computer IT Department. The DVD covers will be authenticated by the registry, and the DVDs in their cover/s will be transmitted to the Adjudicating Authority under a covering letter referencing this order. The Adjudicating Authority will, in the presence of the Petitioners and their Advocates, open the packet transmitted from this Court and view the DVDs on some mutually agreed date. 9. Finally, we make it clear that it is always open to the Adjudicating Authority, after viewing the additional material, to reiterate his previous conclusion if he finds that there is no material on DVDs to support the Petitioners' case, or to hold that in any view of the matter, the Petitioners' submissions even after viewing the sufficient material cannot be sustained. 10. All contentions are expressly left open. 11. Rule is made absolute in these terms with no order as to costs. 12. The original DVDs will be retained on the record of this Court.
