Custom officials foil gold smuggling.
Custom officials at Surat airport have foiled an attempt to smuggle gold worth Rs 20 lakhs into the country. While screening through the passengers’ baggage, custom officials found that Ganesh Valodra, a Mumbai resident who had arrived on a Sharjah bound Air India flight, had concealed gold foils in the cover of his suitcases. Valodra has been booked for gold smuggling. Incidentally, it was the second case of gold smuggling that came into light at the Surat airport in less than a week.
