    This type of Gold smuggling is carried out by well organized Gold merchants. For them Lacs & Crores like peanuts. Those who are caught are only middle man delivery service. An ordinary working class person would not risk his hard earned money by taking a chance. Must identify the Kingpin the source of initiation.

    Comments should be fair according to the published artical. Some times it does not go along with message narrated in the artical, for eg Impound their properties. We are law binding citizens of this country. Let the law and order controlling agency do their duty. They are the best people what type of law should be applied for this type of cases.
