A Pole and a citizen of Guinea in West Africa have been detained at Warsaw’s International Airport, attempting to smuggle cocaine into the country in their stomachs.The Pole had swallowed 53 capsules, each containing about 10 grams of the drug, and African as many as 140 capsules. The market value of the smuggled narcotics is about half a million zlotys, an equivalent of 150, 000 euros.
The Police and customs officers were tipped off that the traffickers would be arriving to Warsaw. As nothing was found in their luggage, the two men were subjected to X-ray tests. They began their journey in Guinea, flying to Warsaw via Paris and Brussels. Drug smuggling carries a prison sentence of up to 15 years.
