Gongbei Customs will hold an auction for 30 kg of smuggled gold today. There will be 30 gold items up for bidding.
Two years ago, Gongbei Customs seized the gold from two men who had been paid RMB300 to carry luggage, as well as a box containing the gold, across two Zhuhai islands.
The gold has gone unclaimed since Customs posted a notice calling for the owners, leading to the aforementioned public auction. All proceeds from the bidding process will be returned to the state treasury.
