RIYADH: An Asian woman was arrested for attempting to smuggle alcohol through Jeddah’s main airport.
Abdullah Al-Falai, Custom Control director at King Abdulaziz International Airport, said the woman hid five bottles of alcohol underneath her abaya.
The women staff at the Custom Control felt suspicious of the way the woman walked and the way her clothes were worn.
They inspected her and easily found the bottles of alcohol in pockets she had specifically designed for the smuggling attempt.
