LAHORE: The Special Federal Court of Customs Taxation and Anti-Smuggling has postponed the case of the accused arrested by the customs authorities from Lahore Airport.
Sources told Customs Today that a suspect, Ibrar Islam, was arrested by the Customs Preventive from the Allama Iqbal International Airport while he was travelling for Muscat.
During a search of his luggage, the customs officials found 550 gram gold that he was trying to smuggle from Lahore into the gulf state. The customs registered a case against Ibrar and seized the gold.
The customs investigation and prosecution team presented him before the customs court and sought his physical remand which the court approved for three days. He has also got a bail from the court later.
The customs authorities have registered a case against him under the Pakistan Customs Act-196.
