Police based at the Cape Town International Airport confiscated drugs worth R5-million in a passenger’s luggage yesterday afternoon.
Police spokesman Superintendent Billy Jones says their suspicions were raised by the actions of a man who arrived on a flight from Johannesburg.
“The 28 year man who is from Lower Crossroads, in Philippi had seven plastic bags containing 14 kg of Methamphetamine, commonly known as Tik to the value of R5-million hidden between the clothes in his suitcase,” Jones said
Jones says the suspect is currently in police custody.
He will appear in the Bellville Magistrates’ Court on Monday on a charge of dealing in drugs.
