Maharashtra: 700 grams gold seized from flight

“The flight was supposed to fly to Chennai where there was a possibility that his aide could have retrieved the gold from him. There could be a possible involvement of gang at work which we are trying to find out,” an AIU official said.

Nearly 700 grams of gold was seized from IndiGo Airlines flight 6E-062 Monday night by officials of the Air Intelligence Unit (AIU). Six gold bars of 10 tolas each were found on the flight that came from Dubai. Officials have hinted at the possible involvement of a gang as they traced a frequent flyer travelling on the same seat under which the seizure was made.
