I do not think that this Court can interfere in the matter because documents produced by the petitioner himself shows that goods were sent in the name of other persons, whom petitioner says are his employees. I make it clear that department should proceed in accordance with the statute. Petitioner is free to file claim petition. If petitioner files any claim petition, then there will be direction to the respondent to pass orders thereon before sale of goods, if goods are not already sold. This WP(C) is closed as above. Issue photocopy of this judgment today itself. (C.N.RAMACHANDRAN NAIR, JUDGE) jg
