Lucknow, Aug 4 (IANS) The Customs officials at Chaudhary Charan Singh International Airport in Lucknow have found six gold bars in a dustbin near the immigration area at the airport.
According to the officials, six gold bars were wrapped with black tape, hidden in a black polythene and then dumped into the dustbin near the immigration area at the airport.
The confiscated gold bars are valued at Rs 36.60 lakh in the market.
Officials are now scanning the CCTV footage to find out who put the gold in the dustbin.

According to customs officials, "The gold was in the form of a paste which was wrapped in black tape in two packets. The total weight of the packets was 433 grams. After removing the tape and other impurities from gold, it weighs 397 grams."
The two accused -- Ankit Sersa and Sachin Chaudhary had been in the custody of the Delhi Police in an arms case. Chief metropolitan magistrate Snigdha Sarvaria granted their transit remand to the Mansa Police SIT team that is probing the murder of Punjabi singer Shubhdeep Singh Sidhu, popularly known as Sidhu Moosewala.
