Wait 5 sec.

Ashiya, returning from Saudi Arabia with four 998 purity gold bangles, faced customs seizure in Delhi. The customs department argued the bangles' high purity was unusual for everyday jewelry. However, the Delhi High Court ruled in Ashiya's favor, citing she wasn't a habitual offender or part of a smuggling operation, and ordered the bangles' return upon payment of warehousing charges.
