Gold Seized by DRI is fake
A report from Ahmedabad says that 52 gold bars seized by DRI last month turned out to be made of copper and lead. The DRI had arrested former Army Major Saurabh Saharan and one Surender Singh Dagar from an Ahmedabad hotel and they are still in jail. Now that the gold has turned out to be copper, they may soon get bail.
But why should anyone go around with gold looking copper bars good to be seized by the DRI?
It seems the accused claim that the bars were dummy ones and were brought as samples to show customers how original gold bar would look like. However, DRI does not buy the logic behind the argument and their investigation is on.
