24 gold biscuits worth Rs 4 crore found hidden in IndiGo aircraft lavatory at Ahmedabad airport
Officials at Ahmedabad airport recovered 24 gold biscuits hidden inside an IndiGo aircraft, valued at about Rs 4 crore (around $4.8 million). The stash was found inside a lavatory fixture, rather than on a passenger, shifting attention away from routine screening and toward aircraft access during ground operations. The case is being examined for how the concealment bypassed standard passenger security and customs checks and whether insider access played a role. It has renewed scrutiny of vulnerabilities in the physical gold supply chain and gaps in aviation oversight.
