A shipment of SKIMS underwear became part of a major international drug investigation after UK border officers uncovered cocaine hidden inside a lorry transporting the brand's products. Authorities confirmed that neither Kardashian nor SKIMS had any involvement in the smuggling operation. Investigators said the products were legitimate cargo being used to conceal narcotics during transport from the Netherlands to the UK.
Truck driver Jakub Jan Konkel was arrested after border officers became suspicious of his driving behaviour at the port, X-rayed the lorry, and discovered concealed compartments hidden within the trailer doors containing approximately 90 kilograms of cocaine with an estimated street value of £7 million ($9.4 million).
