Need help in show cause notice on import of obscene article; to be heard in person before adjudicatn
Received a show cause notice from customs department. for the 'obscene article'. 1. Going to forward the documents requested in the notice. But need help with this clause; 2. In case of any contravention of Customs Act, 1962, you are also requested to specifically state whether you would like have show cause notice and also inform whether you want to be heard in person before adjudication or otherwise. 3. I have to visit Ahmedabad FPO, so would prefer if the lawyer is of Ahmedabad. Thanks. In advance.

No need of personal presence, you can write to them and submit your justification and no intentional violation of sec 111 of custom act.
P.S. - Forgot, to include but; 1. Yes, I have to show the documents such as (invoice, transaction detail, personal identity card - aadhar or voter) 2. I am ready to pay the penalty. What I want to be helped with is 1. Create a show cause notice for me. 2. Draft/Notice that I want to be heard in person. Have to forward them in Email. I cannot personally visit Ahmedabad to just only meet the lawyer. If I get the above documents online, Do I need to have lawyer present with me at the FPO when i visit? (for this specific reason I want lawyer working/based in Ahmedabad)

1) you dont need to engage a lawyer

3) pay the penalty imposed by customs for import of obscene article
It is not mandatory fr you to get a lawyer, you may go and represent your case your self before the FPO..
You will surely get in touch with someone based in Ahemadabad, on this portal.

Your show cause notice shall be duly draft and send via e- mail or registered post.
you dont need a lawyer
2) you can wait for issue of show cause notice
3) it is issued by customs
4) lawyer does not create show cause notice
5) lawyer can only help you in replying to show cause notice
They will at the most fine you 5000/-. You can reply to the said show cause notice vide lawyer
no need to engage lawyer, you should personally appear before them and pay the penalty.
See you can reply to the notice stating your defence providing the documents and requesting a Personal hearing.
This is case of petty offence in case of customs you can accept it as mistake and further can agree to pay the reasonable penalty.
Further the contents of letter can be shared for further help.
Hello,
I suggest you to appear in person along with a lawyer. You have to pay fine , so you need not to worry.

If you have received a notice from customs department then you give a reply stating that you are not aware of the said law prohibiting the purchase, however since you agree for confiscation of the imported goods, you may request the authorities to waive your personal appearance and penalty if any.
You may send your reply by registered post and await their further instructions.
If you feel that you require to be present before them in person you can do it by yourself without the assistance of a lawyer also.
You can present your case yourself convincingly.
Dear
