Apr 09, 2024

Hong Kong, April 9: Hong Kong customs said Monday it has made the biggest gold smuggling bust in its history, seizing 146 kg of the precious metal disguised as air compressor parts at the city's international airport. Melted and molded into parts like motor cores, screws, and gears, the smuggled gold was intercepted last month in two air compressors that were sent by air from Hong Kong to Japan and estimated to be worth HK$84 million ($10.7 million), the customs department said at a press conference.
