The actress investigated by Customs officials on her way back to Mumbai from UK


It looks like Bollywood's archenemy at the Mumbai airport, Sameer Wankhede is at it again! This time his victim was Ameesha Patel, who was returning from UK. The actress was on her way back to Mumbai with her business partner Kuunal Goomer when she was stopped by Customs officials.

Our source says, "The two of them were in UK, searching for locations for their debut production venture. The Customs officials asked them to step aside and then they were taken aside for checking. Every piece of their luggage was opened and checked."

Ameesha was still at the airport when she told us, "We have been here forever but Sameer Wankhede has been very helpful. A female inspector checked my luggage or else it would have been very embarrassing."

Our source adds, "There was a tip-off which claimed she was carrying jewellery and electronic goods in her bag that were not disclosed." Ameesha adds, "Wankhede said it is a fake case. When my bags were checked, they didn't find anything." Later the actress sent us a text message that read, "Paid a small duty for my bags and now we are heading out of the airport."
