Foreign currency worth ₹68.09 lakh was seized at Chennai airport by Air Customs and a passenger was arrested.
Based on inputs from the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence, Bengaluru Zongal Unit, the Customs officials stopped a spassenger bound for Dubai at 5.45 a.m. on Thursday, according to a press release.
When the passenger’s baggage was opened, the Customs officials found 396 currency notes of Saudi Riyals and 10 notes of $100 denomination hidden in paper folders.

“Walk for Equality was aimed at creating a movement to crush the forces attempting to divide the people along religious line, said Marumalarchi Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (MDMK) leader Vaiko. Concluding his 140-kilometre ‘Samathuva nadai payanam’ from Tiruchi to Madurai on Monday, Mr. Vaiko said, “The Hindutva forces are actively attempting to drive a wedge between communities through various incidents, most notably the Thirupparankundram deepam controversy, using identity-based politics to achieve their divisive motives.”
