Customs detains Beauty's Crown

INDIAN beauty Srishti Rana returned to Mumbai airport yesterday after being crowned Miss Asia Pacific World 2013. But the crown is now with the Customs! At the airport, she changed and wore the crown for photographers to click away the glorious crown.

Customs suspected the crown to contain diamonds and so the beauty queen had to go out of the airport without the crown. It seems the kind Customs allowed her to put on the crown and be photographed at the exit gate. The crown is now with Customs and she would be asked to pay a hefty duty if it really contains diamonds.
