Traveling with wife and two kids after 5 years to visit India for 3 weeks. Landed in HYD after 36 hours. I was carrying 2 iPads (old and new), 2 laptops (used) personal and work and a personal used camera...could not convince the customs thug that it is legal...he wouldn't let us go unless I give him a higher official's name or some money. I had to give him $ 40 bribe to let me go. This is in the great Shamshabad International Airport custom's who would not work unless the CC cameras are removed from their work area.
