Sushmita Sen, not above the Law, MCOCA on the cards thumbnail

If a person stays outside the country for more than two years, he or she becomes eligible to import the goods without paying any customs duty in the name of transfer of residence. At times if the materials happen to be relatively unused or less used, the authorities levy lesser duty.

Using this facility there are some Dubai based dealers carry out a brisk business in importing costly vehicles for the rich and influential.

Susmitha Sen, the former Miss Universe fell prey for this and got lured into importing a Toyota Landcruiser in 2005.

Promptly, Municipal Corporation of Mumbai slapped a hefty penalty to a tune of Rs 23 lakhs citing violation in Octroi. This led to investigations by Economic Offences Wing (EOW) and arrest of around 7 persons including the car dealer and RTO officials. However, the beauty queen Susmitha has surprisingly slipped out of this net with a clean chit.

Now the climax comes. There is an opinion by legal wing that the crime has got enough ingredients to slap MCOCA (Maharashtra Control of Organised Crime Act) on Susmitha. Days to come will see the real twist in the story.
