Do you have currencies of other countries? Do you carry them with you always, even while traveling in flight? Is it more than the allotted amount?
The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) has arrested a Jet Airways employee at the Indira Gandhi International Airport for allegedly carrying US dollars worth Rs 3.21 crore.
“US Dollars valued at Rs 3.21 crore recovered from a lady crew member of a Hong Kong-bound Jet Airways flight last night at Indira Gandhi International airport,” said the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence, in a statement, on Monday.
