Mumbai Airport Customs Bust Gold Smuggling Racket; Two Arrested

Some people tried to sneak gold through an airport in a tricky way.

A woman who was just passing through gave the gold to a worker at the airport.

The gold was hidden inside socks.

Guards at the Mumbai Airport noticed something strange about the worker.

They stopped him and found four small oval capsules filled with gold dust.

The gold weighed about 1.311 kilograms and was worth about 1.61 crore rupees.

The woman and the worker were arrested.

The woman said she was carrying the gold for someone else, and the worker said he was paid to take it.

Customs officers took the gold and are still investigating who was really behind the smuggling.
