#31: Fool’s Gold

Considering that India is one of the largest gold purchasers in the world, it only makes sense that people are always trying to get their hands on the valuable metal. When there is something this valuable around all the time, people are bound to try and smuggle it whenever they can.

On a flight from Mumbai to Bangkok, 24 gold bars which came to the value of $1,250,000 US million were found in the bathroom compartment by maintenance personnel. Can you imagine bringing that much gold onto a flight to then forget that you had stored it in the bathroom?
