After nearly a month of inactivity, the Air Intelligence Unit (AIU) of Mumbai Customs sprung back into action, seizing gold worth R1.75 crore in the past few days. The lull period was in September due to Pitru Paksha, the 15-day lunar period dedicated to performing last rites for ancestors according to Hindu customs.
