Air Canada employee is at the centre of an international investigation after authorities at Vancouver International Airport seized a large quantity of cocaine before Christmas.
Paula Shore of the Canada Border Services Agency said officers seized 61.5 kilograms of the drug on Dec. 23.
Air Canada spokesman John Reber confirmed that an airline employee has been suspended pending the results of the probe.
The drugs were found in unaccompanied suitcases, the RCMP source said, adding the people behind the shipment had "inside help."
Police would not say if the bust is connected to two previous seizures at Vancouver airport where cocaine was found in suitcases that arrived on flights from Mexico this year and last year.
