The Customs Department, IGI Airport, New Delhi headed by Commissioner Vishal Pal Singh has intercepted an Indian national male passenger attempting to smuggle concealed gold.

The Indian national male passenger was traveling from Jeddah to New Delhi.

Through spot profiling techniques, Customs officers flagged the passenger at the Green Channel exit. Upon X-ray scanning of the baggage, suspicious images were noticed. While the passenger cleared the DFMD without triggering any alarms, a detailed manual inspection of the baggage revealed 201 silver-coated rings appearing to be made of gold, ingeniously concealed as metal buttons of apparel.

The concealed metal rings, confirmed to be 24 carat gold, weighed a total of 379 grams valued Rs 29 lakhs.
