Afghan border police at Kabul International Airport arrested Sunday a man at check-in who was attempting to smuggle more than two kilograms of heroin to India, placing the drug in parts of his suitcase, officials said.
"A person had attempted to move to Delhi more than two kilograms of drugs which he had placed in his suitcase skillfully, but he was arrested by the police," said Mohammad Joma Adeel, Security Chief of Kabul International Airport.
"Over the past (Persian) year, border police have discovered more than four kilograms of drugs being attempted to be smuggled to Arab countries and India," he added.
Previous reports found that large amounts of cash have been illegally transferred via Kabul airport where drug smugglers have tried to have their drugs transferred.
