Agents of the National Drug Control Agency (DNCD) and the specialized Corps of Airport Security (CESAC) have arrested a 60-year-old man who was trying to take liquid cocaine out of the country in bottles that appeared to be beauty products.

The as-yet unidentified man was trying to board a flight to Brussels.

The suspected drugs were sent to the INACIF for confirmation. The arrested man has been taken to DNCD headquarters to discover if he was acting as a mule or if he is part of a group of drug traffickers.

The bottles containing the substance suspect to be liquid cocaine were detected by officials in a suitcase with a double bottom, mixed with supposed beauty products.
