Default German arrested at TFS for smuggling cocaine into Tenerife inside his body

TFS Guardia Civil arrested a 50-year-old German yesterday for trying to bring 1,090 grams of cocaine into Tenerife through the airport.

The arrest was made in the arrivals hall when Guardia Civil officers approached the man and asked the reason for his visit to Tenerife. Apparently, he was unable to give a convincing reason, and although a search of his suitcase revealed nothing, he was taken to a hospital centre in Santa Cruz for X-rays where it was established that he was carrying the drugs inside his body.

The packets were expelled under medical control, and turned out to be 88 capsules of cocaine amounting to 1,090 gramos.

Seems to me they knew something, though, otherwise why would they have approached him in the first place to ask why he was coming to Tenerife, and why take him to hospital for X-rays! Well done to them again!

Too much detail, or not enough. Why did they challenge him in the first place, I wonder?

Perhaps he was walking like he'd filled his pants, or was about to so had a 'wild eyed look' about him
