“We will examine the documents of the seized vehicles and summon the actors for recording their statements,” said the commissioner. The smuggled vehicle racket is spread across many other states, calling for an All-India operation. Many vehicles lack documents, including fitness certificates and insurance, but are still being used in Kerala. Among the vehicles smuggled in from Bhutan included luxury SUVs like Land Cruisers, Prado, and Land Rovers. The prices of smuggled vehicles, which are procured in Bhutan for less than Rs 5 lakh, get more than Rs 40 lakh when these are re-registered in Kerala.
