The original value of the watches was estimated by the Customs to be Rs 1.73 crore.
The son of a Telangana Minister has been summoned by the Customs Department in Chennai over his alleged role in the smuggling of high-end watches worth crores of rupees.
Ponguleti Harsha Reddy - son of Telangana's Revenue, Housing and Information Minister Ponguleti Srinivasa Reddy - was supposed to appear before the Customs on April 4 but sought postponement due to dengue fever, agreeing to attend after April 27.
The smuggling incident reportedly happened on February 5 when two luxury watches - Patek Philippe 5740 and Breguet 2759 - were seized from a Hong Kong-based Indian Muhammed Faherdeen Mubeen, who was visiting Chennai from Singapore.
