A Phuket special task unit together with Deputy Superintendent for Narcotic Drug Suppression police unit brought in Mr. Eleodoro Peruanr and Mr. Sadi Mercedes, both age 29 and Peruvian nationals, for body X-rays at Wachira Hospital in Phuket.

The two male suspects were examined for cocaine which they swallowed in their stomach. The two foreign suspects were detained after they landed at Phuket International Airport after police information indicated that drugs were being smuggled in by foreign passengers. The two passengers then acted suspiciously and when searching their bodies the officers found 8 items of cocaine in black bags contaminated with stool in their shoes.

The X-ray results showed around 100 cocaine in their stomach. Police suspected that they swallowed the drugs before taking off, then had stomach trouble on the plane so they released some out. If the cocaine had reached Phuket public it might have been sold at around 3,000 baht per gram.
