torturedsole Posted May 4 Share Posted May 4 (edited) 2 hours ago, Hummin said: Most likely kept passport in same space as the bag, and after a fresh up at the plane toilet, he dropped it in to his passport! Have done it with my credit card once. Agreed the most plausible explanation is that the small bag of charlie worked its way into the passport through a mix of location, motion and gravity. Either way, not a good idea to leave the UK with even a small amount of coke in your man bag. I actually feel a bit sorry for the guy as he's obviously not an international drugs courier, but about to learn a severe lesson. I hope the kids out there contemplating coming here are reading stories like this and taking it all in, much like having travel insurance that covers all instances prior to arriving in Thailand / abroad.

An earlier poster mentioned six months imprisonment and in the grand scheme of things, I reckon six months would be a maximum. However, he might get lucky and merely be deported on conviction given such a small amount. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
