DRI Seizes 25,000 Kg Pakistan-Origin Watermelon Seeds Worth ₹2.02 Crore At Nhava Sheva Port, Arrests Two Under Operation Deep Manifest

Mumbai: The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI), under Operation Deep Manifest, has unearthed another attempt to circumvent India’s prohibition on the import of goods originating in or exported from Pakistan. The operation, conducted between 11 September and 22 October 2026, led to the interception of a consignment of around 25,000 kg Pakistan-origin watermelon seeds that had been routed through Dubai and falsely declared as of UAE origin to evade the import prohibition. Two persons were arrested on 22nd October 2026. Acting on specific intelligence, DRI officers examined a consignment of around 25,000 kg seeds, declared as of UAE-origin muskmelon seeds, imported through Nhava Sheva Port. Although, examination revealed that the goods were watermelon seeds, with evidence indicating their Pakistani origin.Preliminary investigation revealed a deliberate transshipment arrangement designed to conceal the true origin of the goods. The seeds were initially shipped from Karachi Port, Pakistan, to Jebel Ali Port, Dubai, in one set of containers aboard a vessel. Following transshipment at Jebel Ali, the goods were transferred into another set of containers and loaded onto a different vessel for onward shipment to India. The change of containers and vessels, coupled with the misdeclaration of country of origin and fabricated import documentation, was intended to disguise the Pakistani origin of the consignment. The investigations yielded crucial documentary evidence, clearly establishing the movement of the consignment from Pakistan through Dubai to India, contradicting the declared UAE origin.The investigation further revealed that the import was in contravention of the applicable import policy on two counts. First, the direct or indirect import or transit of all goods orig
