Police reported arresting a couple and a taxi driver from Hela with 13 kg of marijuana that had arrived from the Highlands, and finding about 10 kg left unattended after a flight from Tapini. They were also investigating more than eight bags that arrived on an Air Sanga flight in May and disappeared from the terminal with the help of airport and police officers. The deputy commissioner said some officers were involved and that airline, customs and security agencies needed to work together.[1]
