Huge cocaine haul detected

Rasika SOMARATHNA

Customs Sleuths at the Bandaranaike International Airport (BIA) seized a huge stash of cocaine valued at over Rs 150 million in the baggage of a man travelling from India to Bangkok via Sri Lanka. “The haul of more than 10 kilograms was found in a mishandled baggage. Later we arrested the concerned person,” Customs Superintendent Nihal Alahapperuma said. The passenger, an Indian national was reportedly on transit at the BIA enroute to Bangkok from India.

A team of officials under the guidance of Customs Director General Sudharma Karunaratne and on the directions of Customs Director P Yoganadhan and Deputy Director K R Seneviratne are investigating.
