The Air Intelligence Unit (AIU) of Mumbai Customs on Saturday apprehended a person and seized 11 pieces of newly released iPhone X.

The Customs official said, one Bhavesh Virani, arrived from Hongkong last night and search of his check-in baggage led to the recovery of iPhone X.

“We are in process of finding out reason why he was carrying the phones if it’s a syndicate gang,” the official said.

The iPhone X was launched in India on Friday and each phone costs between ₹90,000 to ₹1 lakh.
