Gentlemen/Ladies
Bear with me while i explain the query. I was employed in libya forom 2006-2010. I sent money using western union. which was received as cash in India. Since i coudnt send to myself therefore i sent it on my parents and on my wifes name. In addition, due to the restrictions on cash sent through western union (10 transactions allowed in a financial year) in libya, i used my colleagues passport's to transfer money through western union to my parents and wife (western union receiving limit-10 transactions per year). This sum was deposited as cash deposit in my N.R.O account back in India when i came back for my annual leave to india. I am being scrutinized by the income tax department to explain the cash deposits in my bank account. Any help in resolving this conundrum would be highly appreciated.

p.s (libya did not have provision to transfer money through rtgs/wire transfer in those days due to financial embargo from the USA/Europe)
