    One particular community indulged in smuggling gold from Dubai is leading to lose faith and trust on daily basis. Do we need more certificate to verify this community's illegal activities.

    These smugglers are better than corrupt politicians as these smugglers at least don’t eat tax payers money and they put themself in risk. Also I wonder where these seized gold goes - to welfare fund or individul-welfare. I have never seen any news about using these seized gold for any development/ welfare of citizens , on the contrary so called thousands of Crore funds collected for COVID-19 was not utilized for the purpose of controlling/ mitigating effect of corona.
