More cocaine found at Nottingham East Midlands Airport
16.03.06
Cocaine with a street value of £40,000 has been seized at Nottingham East Midlands airport yesterday. A kilo of the Class A drug was found in a package labelled 'coats' that had come in on a flight from Venezuela.
When customs officers opened the package they found reels of ribbon which, when unwound, revealed small packages of cocaine taped to the main spool. Airport officials said the ploy was inventive, but added they have improved their own anti-smuggling operations.
Earlier this month 5 kilos of the same drug was found at the airport. It had also came from Venezuela, on that occasion the drugs were concealed inside encyclopedias.
