  "account": "A Chinese man, 39 years old, was detained at Hong Kong International Airport on Wednesday as he arrived from Pulau Pinang, according to customs officials. The man was suspected of attempting to smuggle 2.2kg of the drug cocaine into Hong Kong. This is the second incident involving a Chinese national caught with drugs after a 25-year-old man was arrested on Thursday, reported Bernama. Hong Kong customs announced that the 39-year-old suspect was detained during a customs check when his luggage was found to contain a significant amount of cocaine, valued at approximately HK$1.3 million (around RM700,000) based on market prices. The examination of his cabin luggage uncovered the suspected narcotics, leading to his arrest. The suspect has since been charged with the illegal trafficking of a dangerous drug, and the case is expected to be presented to the Kowloon Western Magistrates' Court tomorrow, according to the statement. Under the Dangerous Drugs Ordinance in Hong Kong, a conviction for trafficking dangerous drugs can result in a maximum fine of HK$5 million and a life sentence if found guilty of the offense.",
