Surat: The customs department posted at Surat airport last night has seized diamonds hidden in a packet of namkeen in the suitcase of a passenger travelling from Surat to Dubai. The price of these diamonds is said to be Rs 6 crore 45 lakh. The Custom Department officials had asked for documents regarding Diamond from the passenger flying from Surat to Dubai, but he could not show any document. Thereafter, the diamond was recovered and he was arrested.

According to the news received, the Intelligence Unit of the Customs Department stationed at Surat airport had received the news from the informer. It was told in this that a person named Javed Pathan is going to illegally carry diamonds worth crores of rupees in an international flight flying from Surat airport to Sharjah on Thursday evening. Thereafter, officers of the Intelligence Unit of the Customs Department were on alert mode at the airport. As soon as Javed Pathan reached Surat airport, the officers stopped him and started checking. Javed had clothes in the upper part of the suitcase, while the bottom was salty. Small packets of diamonds were kept in that namkeen packet.

No one should doubt the packet of namkeen, so it was packed like a company. In the initial investigation, even the customs officers themselves could not understand that the packet may contain diamonds. When the packet of namkeen was searched, 2663 carat diamonds were found in a packet made of carbon coated paper. The cost of these diamonds was estimated to be Rs 6 crore 45 lakh. Javed Pathan had kept diamonds in the carbon-coated paper so that even the scanner machine could not scan. Javed Pathan is a resident of the Udhna area of Surat. He was going from Surat to Sharjah for the first time. His passport is also made in January. The officers fear that Javed Pathan was going to give this diamond to someone after taking it abroad. From there they were sold in other countries. By doing this, the businessman of Surat does not get any other taxation-related responsibility from income tax. Dollars were also seized from Javed Khan, who was apprehended at Surat airport. Where did he get these dollars from, he did not give information. The customs department produced Javed Pathan in Surat court. Special Public Prosecutor of Custom Affairs Dharmendra Prajapati opposed the bail of the offender before the court saying that if the offender is granted bail, the whole matter is likely to suffer. Due to this argument, the court sent the offender to jail custody.
