The Customs Air Intelligence Unit has arrested two air passengers on the charge of smuggling gold weighing 1.25 kg at the international airport here.
Acting on intelligence, unit officers intercepted a male passenger who landed here from Dubai by an Air India Express flight on Monday. During personal search, they found two bundles of gold in paste form concealed in the rectum. The bundles were recovered and on extraction one gold ingot of 24K purity and weighing 555 gm was recovered and seized.
Everyone talks about the Airport Metro, but one look at the pillars and completion seems nowhere in sight. Meanwhile, a faster, cheaper, roomier alternative called the Suburban Rail Airport Corridor is finally getting off the drawing board. This dedicated corridor with its specialised coaches will link the airport to vast stretches of Bengaluru, where the metro connection is still years away.
