At Malpensa with the wheelchair, in the wheels eight kilos of pure cocaine
A US citizen in handcuffs had attracted the attention of the Finance dog(Handle)
In a wheelchair and with an obvious brace on his right leg, he arrived at Milan's Malpensa airport on a flight from La Romana, Santo Domingo.
However, the man, an American, immediately ended up in the crosshairs of the anti-drug dog Cosmo, so the soldiers of the Guardia di Finanza on duty at the airport checked him.
In the wheels of the chair they found over eight kilos of pure cocaine divided into 43 wrappers .
The pusher was taken to the hospital to check his health conditions and then arrested on the orders of the Busto Arsizio prosecutor's office. His arrest has already been validated.
The drug, sold retail, would have yielded around one million euros .
It is not the first time that drug traffickers have tried to introduce drugs in this way: a Spaniard, who turned out to be a false invalid, had hidden 13 kilograms of cocaine in his wheelchair last August and was arrested.
