Another drug mule arrested at OR Tambo airport

JOHANNESBURG - Fourteen drug mules have been arrested at the OR Tambo International Airport in recent weeks.

On Sunday, police arrested a 43-year-old male from Paraguay who had landed on a flight from São Paulo, Brazil.

A medical examination confirmed that he had swallowed multiple foreign objects and has so far released more than 20 bullets suspected to contain cocaine.

He is not the first suspect to be arrested this week.

Earlier, police arrested three drug mules -- including two Dutch traffickers -- who were found with 80 kilograms of CAT.
