Airport Authorities Intercept Cash Concealment - Money Hidden Inside Airport Inspections

At Friedrichshafen Airport, a surprising discovery was made when two Serbian citizens were found to be in possession of a large sum of cash. The couple, who were preparing to depart for Belgrade, Serbia, were initially reported to have 20,000 euros, but during a routine inspection at the Ulm Main Customs Office, a far greater amount was uncovered.

According to reports from news aktuell and the Ulm Main Customs Office, the total amount of cash discovered was over 107,000 euros. The source of this substantial sum was not immediately clear, but the woman explained that it had accumulated through savings.

The incident triggered an investigation, and the Wangen District Court set a security deposit of 28,140 euros as a condition for the couple's travel. After the couple paid this amount, they were allowed to continue their journey.

No further legal actions were mentioned in the given paragraph, and no valid cash declaration could be provided by the couple. The Ulm Main Customs Office played a crucial role in the couple's release.

The 70-year-old Serbian national, one of the couple members, held a German residence permit. No further details about the husband were provided in the given paragraph.
