The Commissioner confiscated girders used in the bridges for the Konkan Railways and imposed a redemption fine of Rs. 5 lakhs. What will happen if they do not redeem the girders? Will the Commissioner send his Inspectors to pull down the bridges? The CESTAT observed, “We do not know what would happen if the appellants do not redeem them. The Commissioner would be in no position to pull down the bridge to recover the blessed girders”
