The Government Railway Police (GRP) Monday arrested three youths at the Guwahati Railway Station and recovered about 9.5 kg of gold from their possession.

"The gold, in the form of ten biscuits, was recovered during a routine checking of luggage at the Guwahati Railway Station. The youths were bound for Kolkata and had come from Manipur," GRP officials said.

"The three youths had boarded the Kamrup Express bound for Kolkata," police said.

In August, four persons, including two women, were arrested from the Kamrup Express at Dimapur railway station in Nagaland with 4.33 kg of gold.
