Again! A shocking smuggling case has been reported on Sunday at Mumbai’s airport, where the air intelligence unit (AIU) customs officials seized 61 kg of gold valued at Rs 32 crore in two separate cases. The report says that the police have arrested seven passengers in the connections.

Talking about the first case, it has been reported that the 3 offenders were caught as carriers and seized 53kg of gold from them. Police shared photos of the expensive material which was cleverly kept in form of bars, concealing in waist belts. The report also suggested that each offender was carrying around 18kg of gold in their belt.

In another operation, the AIU officials recovered 8kg gold and are questioning the person carrying it. Officials declined to elaborate, saying operations related to the seizure were continuing.

Meanwhile, this is not the first time such an incident has been reported by the Mumbai airport authority. Earlier, the Customs department held eight passengers, including three international citizens at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport for trying to smuggle gold bar worth Rs more than 16.27 crore.

The airport authority then revealed that the accused was hiding the gold bars in a custom-made chest belt that wore underneath his shirt, another Indian passenger did the same, while a Sudanese national attempted to smuggle the bar by hiding it in his body.

Customs officials told the media that initially when they were accused, they noticed some fishy about them. At the security, their behavior was not normal which force them to check those passengers.

Meanwhile, a report suggested that in the last month, more than 50 cases of gold smuggling have been reported at the Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj international airport. Apart from this, four cases of smuggling foreign currency and more than three cases drug smuggling were also reported.

A viral video shared on X has sparked concerns regarding the safety measures employed by OLA Cabs for their passengers. The footage, which has since circulated widely online, features a cab driver from Mumbai watching omelette-making recipe videos while navigating a busy road. The passenger, who recorded the video and posted it on his X account, criticized OLA for the driver’s reckless behavior.

An X user known as Dark Knight shared the video, stating, “Dear Ola, your driver is learning how to cook an omelette while driving, risking our lives. With your scooters already facing issues like catching fire, I hope you implement corrective measures before this situation escalates further.”

In addition to condemning the driver’s actions, he also noted the ongoing problems with OLA’s scooters spontaneously igniting, which have resulted in numerous customer complaints. Dark Knight urged the company to take immediate action regarding this current issue.

Mumbai Police acknowledged the viral video and responded to the user’s post, writing, “Please share the exact location so we can inform @MTPHereToHelp.”

As of now, there have been no reports of legal consequences for the cab driver. Nonetheless, this incident highlights a significant concern about distracted driving in busy areas. The driver’s negligence could potentially lead to a serious accident, jeopardizing both the passengers’ safety and that of other road users.

The video, taken by Khule while seated in the backseat, shows the driver’s phone positioned next to the steering wheel, playing a reel on how to make an omelette. He can be seen swiping up for the next video, which features clips from the TV show Big Boss, all while continuing to drive.

In his criticism of the driver, Khule also called attention to the frequent incidents of OLA scooters catching fire, emphasizing the need for the company to address the growing number of customer complaints.

After the video gained traction, OLA Support responded to Khule, requesting additional details about the cab driver to facilitate an investigation. They stated, “We find this matter deeply concerning, Rohan. Please share the CRN of this ride via DM so we can investigate and assist you as soon as possible.”
