A Colombian national was caught trying to smuggle drugs hidden under a toupee, while boarding a flight from Cartagena to Amsterdam on February 20. The wig contained 19 cocaine capsules, a shipment valued at more than €10,000 (£8,290), authorities said. The suspect was arrested and placed at the disposal of the Attorney General's Office for the crime of trafficking, manufacturing and carrying narcotic substances.
