LAHORE: Special federal court of customs taxation and anti-smuggling has submitted a detailed challan against an accused arrested by the customs authorities from Sialkot.
The accused, travelling from South Africa to Sialkot, was intercepted by the customs officials at Sialkot Airport. Customs team, during a search of the luggage, found 30 costly mobile phones hidden in the baggage of Muhammad Sarwar.
During the hearing, customs counsel said the accused was caught red handed while making an attempt to smuggle costly mobile phones into Pakistan. Mobile phones, smuggled from other countries, are also a security risk, he added.
Muhammad Sarwar also filed a petition for his post arrest bail which has been adjourned because of unavailability of prosecutor of the court.
