Wanita Malaysia ditahan bawa 8kg ganja di lapangan terbang Hong Kong
Wanita berusia 33 tahun itu yang tiba dari Bangkok, Thailand ditahan selepas dadah itu ditemui dalam bagasinya.
A 33-year-old Malaysian woman was detained at Hong Kong International Airport after approximately 8kg of ganja, valued at HK$1.6 million (RM830,000), was found in her luggage. The Hong Kong Customs reported that she arrived from Bangkok, Thailand, on September 12 before being detained during customs inspection. "During customs inspection, officers found approximately 8kg of marijuana in her declared baggage.
She was subsequently detained," a spokesperson stated. Under Hong Kong's Dangerous Drugs Ordinance, trafficking drugs can result in a maximum fine of HK$5 million (RM2.6 million) and life imprisonment. This arrest follows a series of similar cases involving Malaysian nationals detained at the same airport, including three incidents in July.
On July 30, a 27-year-old Malaysian man was detained after approximately 3kg of ganja, worth HK$600,000 (RM311,000), was discovered in his luggage upon arrival from Bangkok. On July 16, a 19-year-old Malaysian man detained after approximately 11kg of ganja, valued at HK$2 million (RM1.04 million), was found in his luggage after traveling from Bangkok via Manila in the Philippines.
A fourth Malaysian man, also 19 years old, was detained on July 9 after arriving from Kuala Lumpur via Singapore with approximately 3kg of ganja, valued at HK$500,000 (RM260,000), hidden in his luggage.
