Denpasar (Antara Bali) - Customs officers and anti-drug police at Ngurah Rai international airport have detained an Iranian for trying to smuggle in methamphetamine crystal pills.
Head of the Nugrah Rai International Airport customs office Bambang Wahyudi said here on Tuesday that Shahbazi Saeid (34) was arrested after arrival on a Qatar Airways flight from Doha.
"The flight was through Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, and landed at Ngurah Rai airport on Monday, December 21, 2009, at around 7 pm local time," he said.
Shahbazi Saeid said he was just transiting in Denpasar because his real destination was Jakarta. Saeid tried to smuggle 22 capsules of methamphetamine weighing 200 grams which had swallowed.
Earlier, seven Iranians carrying 4.5 kg of methamphetamine crystals packed in 580 capsules which had been swallowed by them, were arrested.
They were identified as Daryoush Omid Ali, Alireza Safarkhanloo, Bahman Mirzaei, Masoud Soltaninabizadeh, Saeid Soltaninabizadeh, Mohsen Muhammadiargasl, and Mehdl Alinejadgolestan. (*)
