For the first time ever, Macau authorities have found that drug cartels are using Hong Kong university students’ rectums to smuggle drugs into Asia’s gambling capital.
Acting on intelligence, the Macau authorities conducted a targeted investigation and stopped a young man entering the S.A.R. through the Outer Harbour Ferry Terminal, reports Oriental Daily.
Upon questioning (“Do you have drugs inside your rectum?”, we’re guessing), the 22-year-old university student promptly confessed (“Yes, I do,” he said, maybe).
He was taken to the police station, where they presumably have nicer toilets, for further questioning. There, he “discharged” a condom containing six packs of cocaine, weighing a total of 9.96 grams and having a street value of about HKD30,000.
According to the drug mule, smuggling drugs into Macau was a way of making some “quick cash”, and it was all arranged through mobile messaging apps.
Those who rented out their rectums were paid HKD3,000 per successful delivery after their return to Hong Kong.
Totes worth it.
