The Mumbai Airport Customs Department Of Screening Counters




In Mumbai Airport while lost luggage is arguably the most common source of angst and exasperation among fliers, a particular section of fliers passing through the green channel of the great big Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport (CSIA) seem all too eager to leave behind their baggage, anonymous and unclaimed. The Mumbai Airport Customs department manning the online live green channel of the CSIA with hawk-eyed vigilance, have been observing this curious new trend recently, where smugglers, anticipating that they might be nabbed while going through Customs screening area, are abandoning their consignments at the baggage proper screening counters after divesting them of their name tags.

In the past week, the Air Intelligence Unit (AIU) of Mumbai Airport Customs has seized three such anonymous consignments. On May 26, AIU officials seized 1,000 cartons of branded cigarettes worth over Rs. 10 lakh. The cartons were lying abandoned showing in the screening area, and despite repeated announcements by the officials on duty, no one turned up to claim them. The consignment carried out of country a Dubai tag.
