Gold worth MVR 5 million seized from two passengers arriving in Bangladesh from Maldives

Bangladesh customs seized 2.73 kilograms of gold, worth about MVR 5 million, from two Bangladeshi nationals arriving from the Maldives at Dhaka's Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport on October 18. The gold had been processed into paste, moulded into egg-shaped pieces and concealed internally; a separate seizure of gold hidden in cooking utensils was made the same morning at Shah Amanat International Airport.
