SURAT: Four persons were arrested allegedly with 7.15 kilograms of gold worth Rs 4.3 crore near the airport in Surat in Gujarat, an official said on Sunday. The gold was brought illegally onboard a flight from Dubai and the four were held on a tip-off on Saturday night after a car was intercepted, a release from the Surat police's special operations group (SOG) said.
"The four have been identified as Fenil Mavani (27), Nirav Dabariya (27), Umesh Lakho (34) and Savan Rakholiya (30). They had mixed gold paste with a layer of chemical, which was hidden in the undergarments of two of the accused using adhesive tape," an official said.
