Pune: In the second gold catch in four days, the Pune customs authorities on Sunday caught a man who had
landed in Pune from Dubai on a SpiceJet flight (SG-52) and recovered gold worth Rs14.66 lakh in a semi-solid
paste form from him.
The man from Karnataka has been identified as Mohammed Nakhib Shabber Hasan Bapu. “The man was wearing jeans and the waist area of the cloth has been slit open and the gold paste, which had been concealed in a polythene strip, had been inserted in the waistband and the cloth was then re-stitched,” an official told TOI.
The official said the man was behaving in a suspicious manner which led the customs officials to conduct a through check.
