BD customs hit gold bonanza in unlikely places
Under questioning, the 37-year-old admitted he had a dozen chunks of gold weighing 1.4 kilograms, or three pounds, stashed in his rectum. Gold smuggling in Bangladesh is at a record high, officials say, with the country emerging as a major route into neighbouring India, which has slapped high taxes on gold imports. Authorities have seized 1.1 tonnes of the precious metal at airports in the past three years -- an unprecedented haul. Investigators believe it is the tip of a golden iceberg. They say it is bought by jewellers or smuggled into India, the world´s biggest buyer of gold, and is also bankrolling a booming trade in ***** and illegal cattle. As monitoring has been stepped up, barely a day passes without a**ther seizure. Detectives on Wednesday discovered 13 stone-sized gold tablets hidden in the wig of a 45-year-man as he passed through Dhaka´s international airport. Smugglers are increasingly resorting to more drastic methods to evade detection, officials say. "Hiding gold bars in electronic appliances, wheelchairs or in toys has become old tactics. **w they are increasingly using their rectum to carry gold," Moinul Khan, Bangladesh´s customs intelligence chiefsaid. أكثر... ??????? ??????: BD customs hit gold bonanza in unlikely places || ??????: ahlam1399 || ??????: اسم منتداك
