Chinese man arrested at Nepal airport with 1kg of gold hidden up his backside
Eagle-eyed customs officers at Nepal’s Kathmandu Tribhuvan International Airport have arrested a man with 1kg of gold concealed inside his rectum.
The Chinese national, named by the Himalayan Times as 22-year-old Sa Luitui, was pulled to one side by security workers at the airport after they noticed he was walking in a peculiar fashion.
Having arrived on a Tibet Air flight from China, the man was asked to pass through an x-ray machine after his discomfort was noticed by officers at the arrivals gate.
Once he had walked through the machine, it was determined he was carrying a quantity of metal concealed inside his body. When questioned, he admitted he had inserted gold up his backside.
He was taken to a local hospital where doctors extracted the gold, which had been placed inside a condom. One end of the condom was left sticking out of the man’s rectum to aid retrieval of the contraband.
