Clearing my shipment (personal goods after relocation) with the Customs

Reported on August 19, 2011 from Bangalore , Karnataka  ι Report #4667

Recently relocated back to India from the US, Had shipped used house hold items. I was asked to pay INR 9000.00 as customs duty for some of the 'used items'... When I got the receipt later, I found that the duty paid to the government was only INR 5400.00 and the officers had taken away INR 3600.00 into their pockets.

I can personally identify the 2 male and 1 female officer who cleared my shipment.

What is your reaction after reading this report?
