An election flying squad seized a consignment of lungis near Katpadi on Monday. However, the consignment was returned after the owner produced the requisite documents.
The flying squad was conducting a vehicle check near Kasam when it intercepted a mini truck.
The officers found that 14,800 lungis were being transported in the vehicle. They were being brought from Tiruvallur district to Gudiyatham in Vellore.
However, the driver of the vehicle did not possess proper documents such as bills for the consignment. Following this, the flying squad seized the lungis. Later, the owner of the consignment produced appropriate bills to the flying squad members. Officials then handed over the consignment.
