Drug trafficking suspect swallows 100 packs of cocaine

 

 

BANGKOK: -- A Brazilian has been arrested after he allegedly smuggled cocaine into the country. An x-ray found that he had swallowed 100 packs of cocaine, totalling about 1.3 kilograms in an attempt to bring them into the country.

 

Acting on a tip-off, anti-narcotic police rounded up the suspect, identified as Paulo Henrique Pires Naschimento, as he was picking up his luggage at a belt inside Suvarnabhumi Airport at about 8.30pm on September 6. He travelled on an Ethiopian Airline flight from Ethiopia.

 

An X-ray found 100 oval-shaped objects inside his body. Police said he confessed to swallowing the packed cocaine while in Ethiopia and was supposed to meet a man who would pick up the drug in Bangkok.

 

 

He then brought police to a hotel in Soi Sukhumvit 64 where he would meet the contact. 

 

Then the second suspect, Coleta Elsonias, who was later found to be staying in the same hotel, visited Naschimento at his room and gave him some milk to help him release the cocaine. 

 

The first suspect then told Elsonias that he already evacuated the drug out of his body. Elsonias then came back to get the drug at Naschimento’s room when he was arrested. The second suspect refused to talk to police.

A good portion of somtam would probably do a better job !

[ezzra]

So they got the mule and his contact, and that's as far as they will

probably get, and if wasn't for a tip-off they wouldn't get him either...

ANY food is better than airline food.

A "tip off"  The most likely way that anyone would know about drugs being smuggled is if they were somehow involved.

Looks all very neatly stacked 

...as if packed by hand?

Actually, I think that might be part of a profile that airlines look for to ID smugglers.

Oh, dear! Are you serious? I was joking, just because it seems like the whole body is just to full already. Hard to push a good meal down there, isn´t it?

Haha, judging by that x-ray, that was a long, EXTREMELY uncomfortable flight.

This is almost worthy of a Darwin Award.

You have to be totally brain dead to do this kind of thing.

 

I wonder where the drugs were headed? Here do you think? Or on to Australia or somewhere like that.

Reminds me of the Locked up Abroad/Banged up abroad series ..

Whole lot of crazy there.

Most likely Mr. "tip off" asked for increase for his services to pass the customs and did not get it..

Or "Mr. Tip Off" was on the same flight and had a bag that was filled with 20kg of cocaine.

i was actually wondering where that tip off might have come from ie foreign law enforcement but as someone stated earlier i guess he could have raised suspicions with the cabin crew. not eating, sweating, irritable that kind of stuff. either way good result for the nigerians as they wouldn't want real coke on the market in bkk whilst they sell there crushed up yaba for the same price

No doubt about that. But thousands of people do ti and get away with it every year. 

[Jimdandy]

That is how they do it in the US. Then they tell the mule something to the effect of you can go to prison for 100 years or roll over and we will recommend a lighter sentence or if you become an informant we'll put you in the witness protection program.

 

Good job. Tip, coincidence or happenstance does not matter, What matters is they got him.

You put the food in you jacket pocket. then flush it. And cocaine is much more expensive then meth. "yaba"
