In a daring attempt to smuggle drugs, Colombian police apprehended a 40-year-old man at Cartagena's airport. The suspect was caught trying to board a flight to Amsterdam with 220 grams of cocaine hidden beneath a meticulously attached toupee. The concealed drugs, valued at approximately 10,000 euros in European markets, were strategically placed under what authorities described as a 'narco wig'.
A police video released captured the moment an officer carefully removed the suspect's wig, revealing a dozen packets of cocaine. Further investigations revealed the suspect's criminal record, which included two prior drug trafficking convictions.
