MULTAN: The Customs Anti-Smuggling Organization (ASO) has seized non-duty paid tea, welding rods and auto parts during inspection of a bus on Multan-Muzaffargarh road here.
Sources told Customs Today that ASO team intercepted the bus which was coming from Peshawar to Multan and during the checking process the customs officials recovered non-customs paid tea, welding rods and auto spare parts which were concealed in the bus.
The officials demanded the legal import documents of the discovered items but the driver and conductor of the bus could not produce the required documents so the team seized the smuggled items under the customs act 1969.
The customs officials have been assessing the actual value of the confiscated items but an official told the Customs Today that the value of seized articles may be in millions.
