An airline employee has been apprehended at the Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) here for allegedly trying to sneak in a costly mobile phone without paying customs duties.

Officials said the incident was reported yesterday evening when sleuths of CISF's intelligence wing noticed suspicious movement of an airline employee, identified as A Kohli.

They said the employee was frisked and an I-phone 7 was recovered from him. He reportedly had no customs clearance bill for the same.

Kohli, the officials said, told CISF that he was instructed by his superior to hand over the phone to someone.

"The case has been transferred to the Customs authorities," one of the officials said.
