If he had hidden it up a bull he might have got away with it, cattle are sacred animals in that part of the world.

This news item popped up today in the Metro whilst viewing their site and I've just noticed the date originally posted. A slow day at the office and short of stories it seems.

Yep he should have stuck it up a bull's ring piece (Taurus, toroidal/tauroidal field) instead!:

Everybody's talking about a new way of walking?

"They say the smugglers usually buy cheap gold in Dubai or Singapore before trying to make their way to India in order to sell the gold for a profit"

Why is gold worth more in India? 

Edit> I googled

A couple more hikes were introduced the following year, so that the import duty reached a record high of 10 per cent, which is where it stands today. This created an incentive for gold to be smuggled into India, to avoid paying the high duties and to reap greater profits.

Atleast he should be thankful for the GSR

How about carrying 76kg silver in the azz instead

Is that gold I smell?
