Officials of the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) seized unaccounted Saudi riyal worth Rs 45.69 lakh from two Dubai-bound passengers at the Kozhikode Airport on Thursday.
According to DRI officials, the currency was cleverly concealed in a bunch of bananas in the check-in luggage of the two passengers.
The passengers were scheduled to travel to Dubai on Indigo flight 6E-88 when the DRI officials acting on a tip off intercepted them.
Further details are awaited.
