Скачать или смотреть Venezuelan arrested at JKIA in possession of 2.5 kg cocaine

It wasn’t such a ‘Merry Christmas’ for a Venezuelan national, whose attempts to smuggle narcotics into the country, through the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, was foiled by officers from KRA’s Customs and Border Control Division. The two cocaine packages, with a street value of eight million shillings, was seized during a routine passenger search at the airport.

The drugs had been carefully sealed in a false bottom slot on the Venezuelan national’s suitcase, who had arrived at JKIA aboard an Ethiopian Airlines flight, from Addis Ababa, on a tourist visa. KRA says the swift seizure is part of an ongoing high alert security management strategy over the festive season and beyond, to guarantee national security. The 2.5 kilo package seized from the Venezuelan national has been handed over to the Anti-Narcotics Police unit for further investigations, with the suspect expected in court.
