The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) has seized 28 containers of Pakistani-origin goods worth around ₹12 crore at Nhava Sheva Port in Navi Mumbai. The operation also led to the arrest of two individuals. According to the DRI, the containers were packed with cosmetics and dates that had been falsely declared as shipments from the UAE, routed through Dubai’s Jebel Ali Port. The seizure, carried out under Operation Deep Manifest, exposed a deliberate attempt to conceal the goods’ true origin. In total, about 800 tonnes of Pakistani cosmetics and dates were intercepted. Investigations revealed that three Indian importers had purchased the consignment, which is now under DRI custody pending further inquiry.
