ABU DHABI, October 11 (RIA Novosti) - The administration of the Dubai international airport has returned 10 kilograms of gold to an Iraqi trader who left behind his precious parcel while leaving for home, a UAE-based newspaper reported on Sunday.

The trader was carrying a total of 300 kg of gold but left 10 kg behind, Gulfnews said.
