A friend of mine had ordered a sex toy online which was to be delivered to my address (as a gift), instead i got a DETENTION CUM SHOW CAUSE NOTICE!
I have been asked to furnish the following self-certified docs:
1) Purchase invoice/commercial invoice
2) Transaction details
3) Copy of PAN/ DL/voter ID/ Aadhar etc.
4) Requested to refer to Notification S.O. No. 1056 (E), dated 31.11.1993 issued by the ministry of commerce regarding prohibition of import of goods which are liable for confiscation and penalty under Customs Act 1962.
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.
Kindly guide me how to proceed.

Is it really necessary to go through a lawyer (I don't have a lawyer)? Can I not compose a reply on my own?
This is what I have come up with, keeping in mind Mr. Krishna Kishore Ganguly's reply to my question.
"Dear Sir/Ma’am,
This is to bring to your attention that I, the undersigned have never ordered for/ paid for the article(s) mentioned in the show cause notice. Also, I am not at all interested in acquiring the parcel and its contents.
With Regards
xxxxxx"
Will this reply suffice?
