Flyer caught with gold paste in waistband
Bengaluru: 12.11.2021
A passenger from Sharjah was caught at Kempegowda International Airport this week with gold paste worth Rs 29.5 lakh hidden in custom-made trousers and underwear.
Sources with the air intelligence unit of Bengaluru Customs said the incident took place on December 6 when sleuths caught the middle-aged passenger who claimed to be a worker returning from the Gulf.
When his answers didn’t convince the sleuths, they frisked him and noticed his waist was bulky. They found he was wearing a band stitched to the buckle area of his trousers and a pouch-like thing fixed to his underwear. The officers opened them and found the gold paste, weighing 603 grams. TNN
