Customs tightens grip
Passengers arriving from Mumbai and Chennai would be subjected to heavy scrutiny by the Sri Lanka Customs, Customs spokesman Leslie Gamini said.He said that in raids conducted in the recent past, most of the suspects arrested were those arriving from the two cities and involved in smuggling of gold.
Various methods have been adopted to conceal gold from being detected by equipment at the Airport and also avoid the sharp and watchful eyes of the customs officials, he said.
The customs officials however said that genuine travellers would not be inconvenienced by the officials.
The officials cautioned the travellers to be more vigilant about these unscrupulous persons at the airports.(Chaturanga Pradeep-DM Online)
