Colombo, May 20 (Daily Mirror) - Three local females attempting to smuggle in Rs. 120 million worth of Kush concealed in electrical appliances from Thailand were arrested by the Sri Lanka Customs at the Bandaranaike International Airport today.

Customs officials at the BIA Arrival Terminal searched the belongings of the passengers to find the narcotics carefully hidden inside the household electrical goods.

The authorities found 12 kilos of Kush from them. A gram of Kush has a street value of Rs. 10,000 in Sri Lanka.

There is a huge demand for these in the country. Loads of drug users and addicts means in the future, we have to arm innocent civilians for protection like some US states allow "Concealed Carry" or "Open Carry".

HOPE OTHER WOMEN LEARN FROM DETECTIONS LIKE THIS, NOT TO GET DRAWN IN WHEN CRISPY NOTES ARE FLASHED IN FRONT OF YOU. Tuesday, 20 May 2025 04:38 PM

THAILAND IS NOTED FOR HAVING FREE POLICIES ON DRUGS, THIS IS WHAT TAKES MOST DRUG ADDICTS AND OR PEDDLERS TO THE COUNTRY AND THE BOAST OF ECINOMIC GAINS FROM TOURISM. IT APPEARS THESE TWO HAVE OBVIOUSLY BEEN SENT TO THAILAND TO BRING IN THIS HAUL, THEY SHOULD BE GRILLED AND LOCKED UP UNTIL THE SPEAK THE TRUTH, SO THAT THE MAIN SUSPECT/S CAN BE ARRESTED. ALL PASSENFERS ARRIVING FROM THAILAND AND OR HAVE HAD STOPOVERS THERE SHOULD HAVE THEIR BAGGAGES CHECKED WITH A FINE TOOTH COMB. INCIDENTS LIKE THIS ONLY CAUSE A PAUSE IN OTHER ISSUES AND INVESTIGATIONS ALREADY IN PROGRESS BY THE GOVT, LOOKS LIKE THERE IS A FORCE/S BEHIND THESE SHOOTINGS, THREATS AND DETECTIONS (SAD TO SAY POOR UNEDUCATED PEOPLE TAKE ON THESE TYPE OF TRAVELS, WITH NO IDEA WHAT THEY ARE CARRYING IN THEIR LUGGAGE.

Imagine the quantity smuggled out in the 323 containers. Biggest corruptors are advising Pacha Kumara example Usup and Hulangona. Nandalal was the deputy of Arjuna Mahendran during the bond scam.
