Smuggler Arrested With 72 Cocaine Capsules in Stomach (X-RAY PHOTO)


A 20-year-old Irishman had a $200,000 lunch -- and now he might have to pay.
Security personal at a Sao Paulo, Brazil airport on Monday detained a nervous traveler later allegedly found to be smuggling approximately 72 bags of cocaine in his stomach, the Irish independent reports.
Authorities with the Brazilian Federal Police released x-ray images of the suspect, identified only as F.B.B., which appear to show his belly full of drugs. The nearly two-pound stash of coke is estimated to be worth $200,000.
Police said the man was boarding a flight to Lisbon en route to Brussels. Instead of making the trip, authorities escorted the man to a nearby hospital where the capsules were removed, MSNBC reports.
The suspect is charged with international drug trafficking and could face up to 15 years in prison.
