INDIAN Customs say that 20 sniffer dogs are needed at Mumbai airport's air cargo and foreign postal departments to detect drugs and explosives, reports the Press Trust of India.
More gold and drugs smuggling has prompted customs to seek a separate data server of air passengers' detailed information available with immigration authorities, and three more sniffer dogs.
Immigration authorities currently have the data server, which stores the details of every air passenger flying in and out of the country.
This information is required for the purposes of ensuring aviation safety and security. However, customs does not have a separate data server with air passenger information.
Customs instead depends upon its intelligence information and technology, besides keenly observing the movements of passengers.
"Significant help comes from sniffer dogs also which hint drugs presence with a passenger. We have seven dogs now. Going by the air traffic, we need at least three more," the customs official said.
"Presently, we detect the yellow metal with passengers through door frame metal detector. However, there were instances where the smugglers managed to hoodwink security," the official said.
