Man smuggles gold bars up rectum
TO Rajiv Gandhi International Airport in Hyderabad, southern India, where Abdullah Mohammad Riyaz has 1.4kilos of gold on his person. He has four gold biscuits (116 gm each) tucked in his socks and eight in his rectum.
Mr Riyaz is thought to have collected the gold – valued at Rs4 million (£49,000, $74,000) – in Dubai. Duty is payable on gold brought into India.
If Mr Riyaz is looking to mount a defence, he could do better than cite the case of Paul Moran, who tried to turn his faeces into pure gold by placing them on an electric heater at his flat in Derrin Park, Enniskillen.
