NDLEA Busts Syndicate Planting Drugs in Passenger Luggage at Abuja Motor Park
NDLEA operatives in Abuja and Anambra have dismantled a ring that plants illicit drugs in travellers’ bags at motor parks. During a checkpoint inspection on June 20, agents intercepted a Sienna bus from Nnewi and recovered 467.7 g of suspected methamphetamine hidden inside a waybill package within a sack of clothes. Follow-up raids led to the arrest of the intended consignee at Utako Motor Park. Although she denied knowing about the package, loaders in Nnewi confessed the bus driver instructed them to slip the drugs into her luggage. Continued questioning also resulted in the arrest of the alleged owner of the consignment. The NDLEA FCT Command says investigations are ongoing to dismantle the entire network and protect unsuspecting travellers from similar schemes.
