A Pakistani national was arrested at Srilanka’s main international airport for attempting to smuggle heroin concealed inside 12 oranges, an official said on Tuesday.
Srilankan Customs spokesman Leslie Gamini told reporters that the authorities had arrested the 64-year-old suspect at the arrival terminal of the Bandaranaike International Airport on Tuesday morning.
The suspect had arrived from Karachi and had concealed about one kilogram of heroin inside 12 out of 70 oranges that were carried as part of his luggage.
The drug was first packed in polythene bags before being stuffed inside the oranges. The heroin is estimated to be worth Rs1,000,000.
French chefs are hardly alone. There has been a growing backlash in the United States to intrusive photo-taking, with some top-tier restaurants banning photography.
