At Shamshabad Airport, diamonds and foreign currency valued at Rs.6 crore were confiscated. Two individuals from Hyderabad, intending to travel to Dubai, raised suspicions leading to their detainment.
Officials from DRSI thoroughly examined their belongings, discovering diamonds cleverly concealed in chocolate wrappers, along with Rs. 9.83 lakh in foreign currency and Rs. One lakh in cash. The detained passengers are undergoing interrogation due to insufficient evidence.
This incident highlights the vigilance of airport authorities in preventing illegal activities and underscores the importance of thorough security checks.
