Customs took bribe from Indian ship

Customs took bribe from Indian ship Featured

Certain Sri Lankan customs officers had obtained a Rs .10 million bribe from an Indian ship that had brought fertilizer from Iran about a fortnight ago, reports say.

The money had been received to cover up a wrong point of loading mentioned in the ship’s documents, which had Singapore as the point of loading although the actual place of loading was Iran.

However, the customs has officially imposed a Rs. 200,000 fine to the ship as well.
