Flier held for stealing foreign currency worth Rs 2.98 lakh

A Mumbai-bound flier was today held at the Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) here for allegedly stealing 5,800 Canadian Dollars from the bag of a fellow passenger.
The incident occurred at around 1230 AM at the airport when a passenger, identified by the CISF as Rajesh Kapoor, arrived at the terminal building to travel to Mumbai and during security check he stealthily "removed" 5,800 Canadian Dollars (about Rs 2.98 lakh) from the laptop bag of another flier identified as J S Sarao travelling to Hong Kong.
They said Kapoor then quickly moved towards the boarding gates and also changed his dress to avoid detection as security personnel had sensed his suspicious movements.

"Further, on the pretext of forgetting bag at transit area he (Kapoor) tried to run away from terminal but he was chased and caught by CISF constable Sarvesh Kumar Yadav at arrival alighting point," they said.
Kapoor, they said was later handed over to Delhi Police along with the foreign currency.
