Officials with the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence busted an international drug racket at Kempegowda International Airport and seized amphetamine worth ₹40 lakh that was concealed inside a wall clock.
The package was slated to be shipped to Saudi Arabia and was booked by a person from Tamil Nadu with a fake name and address of the sender, said officials.
After receiving a tip-off, the Bengaluru init of the DRI inspected the cargo section of KIA and conducted a thorough check on Thursday evening. After several hours of combing operations, the team spotted a large clock on the wall.
