Cambodian authorities last week arrested an alleged drug mule attempting to smuggle cocaine into the Kingdom by hiding it in his stomach.

 


South African national Blignaut Chan, 26, was seized on September 13 at Phnom Penh International Airport in a joint operation between the National Authority for Combating Drugs (NACD), Customs Department and immigration officers, according to NACD spokesman Meas Virith. 


 

Virith said a scan at the airport revealed Chan had 59 packets of cocaine in his stomach, weighing about 759 grams.
