A Nigerian has been arrested at the Jomo Knyatta International
Airport, Kenya, with pellets of narcotics suspected to be heroin in his
anus. The suspect, according to an online news medium, had inserted
several pellets in his anus before he was intercepted while on transit
from Pakistan to Guineu Bissau.
Police said he had emitted 20 pellets of the drugs believed to be
heroin by yesterday morning. The man was intercepted and put on
observation room when he emitted the pellets.
The value of the narcotics is yet to be known but he would appear in
court today when he is expected to have finished emitting all the
pellets, said police boss, David Kimaiyo. The incident is the latest in a
series of recoveries at the airport. In July, another Nigerian was
arrested after he had been carrying several pellets of heroin valued at
more than Sh2 million.
The man had arrived at JKIA aboard KQ from Dubai while on transit to
Abidjan when he was intercepted by the police. The arrest came days
after another Nigerian was arrested while carrying 53 pellets valued at
more than Sh4 million.
