Valuable Metal
People are always trying to get their hands on valuable metal, which is only natural considering India is one of the largest buyers of gold in the world. It only makes sense that people are always trying to get their hands on valuable metal. When there is something that is constantly present that is of such high value, there is a high probability that people will try to smuggle it whenever they get the chance.
Maintenance staff on a flight from Mumbai to Bangkok discovered 24 gold bars with a combined value of $1.25 million USD in the bathroom compartment of the aircraft. The flight was en route from Mumbai to Bangkok. Can you even fathom bringing that much gold onto a plane and then promptly forgetting that you stashed it in the restroom?
