    Secure your wealth through EFTs its better that all this useless smuggling. Even if you see that gold no trader will give you full price they will cut mini 20%. If you want to bring in gold without customers better to go through kochi Airport.they don't bother checking at all. You can get 220grams and they don't give a damn.

    Mr. Genius I don't break the law and don't create a situation where I'll have to pay bribes to get out. For example I wear my helmet whenever I ride my bike so no cop can sit and fine me. Follow the laws of the land and you won't have any issues...

    Credit goes to none other than customs officials who able to trace out hidden unauthorised things easily. Moreover customs officials keep on watch more on people arriving from Gulf as always more of smuggled goods flown in one or other way. Many times even they smuggle drugs to gulf countries conceal in between Holy Books or in body parts..where in no one can imaginable.
