A Peruvian man was detained at the airport on Saturday for smuggling 1.6 kilogrammes of liquid cocaine worth about 10 million patacas.

A Judiciary Police (PJ) spokesperson said it was the first time that the local police were able to nab a drug mule trying to smuggle liquid cocaine to Macau. 

The spokesperson said the police recently received a tip-off that a cartel had hired people to smuggle drugs to Macau. The police monitored a flight from Thailand on Wednesday and after it had landed, the police saw the suspect, a 63-year-old Peruvian surnamed Villanueva, looking flustered.
