Pakistani held in Thailand with 54 heroin condoms in stomach

Thai authorities received a tip-off that there would be a drug smuggler on the flight and stopped Butt because of his suspicious manner as he came through the nothing-to-declare channel at customs, they said.

(...) The total weight of the drugs was 570 grams (1.2 pounds) with a street value in Thailand of approximately 1.7 million baht (50,000 dollars), customs said.

Butt was charged with possession and trafficking of class A drugs, which carries a possible death sentence in Thailand.
