Reuters said one of the travellers who arrived at Tokyo’s Narita airport over the weekend might have picked up an unusual souvenir from customs, a package of cannabis.
A customs official had hidden the package in a suitcase belonging to a passenger arriving from Hong Kong as a training exercise for sniffer dogs but lost track of both drugs and suitcase during the practice session, a spokeswoman for Tokyo customs was quoted saying.
Customs regulations specify that a training suitcase be used for such exercises, but the official was quoted saying that he had used passengers’ suitcases for similar purposes in the past.
“The dogs have always been able to find it before,” NHK quoted him as saying.
