<h1>DRI Seizes Rs. 3.7 Crore in Foreign Currency at Mumbai Airport; Passengers Attempt Illicit Export to Sharjah.</h1> The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) intercepted two passengers at Mumbai International Airport attempting to smuggle foreign currency worth Rs. 3.7 crore. The passengers, bound for Sharjah, concealed US Dollars and Saudi Dirhams in false bottoms of their luggage. They lacked documentation for the currency's legal export, leading to its seizure under Section 110 of the Customs Act, 1962. This incident, part of Operation Cheque Shirts, highlights the risks of illicit currency export in facilitating money laundering and threatening national security. It marks the fourth significant foreign currency seizure at an international airport in the past six weeks.
