Police detained a grocer and his 20-year-old daughter Monday in the northern city of Como as he attempted to cross the border into Switzerland with 50 kilos of gold ingots worth two million euros hidden in his car.
The 18-karat gold bars were wrapped in newspaper and hidden in false-bottomed compartment beneath the driver's seat, police said.
The 50-year-old grocery store owner and his daughter declined to tell police where the ingots came from.
