THIS is what the boarder guard sees as you pass through the Conpass machine. Your body is being subjected to a low dose x-ray to detect drugs. Catching drugs mules is a full-time job. Today, the guards fond around £3,000 worth of cannabis secreted inside a painting of Manchester City and former Arsenal footballer Emmanuel Adebayor. It has been posted from Tongo to an address in Tottenham. Can’t say the smugglers don’t have a sense of humour…

Border staff use a range of methods and specialist equipment to detect drugs being smuggled into Britain. Sniffer dogs are trained to identify certain drugs and cash while x-ray machines can reveal unusual luggage or parcels. A low-dose radiation body-scanner can be used to detect whether mules have swallowed or stashed packets of drugs. Officials also act on tip-offs from members of the public, criminal informants and other law enforcement agencies around the world. See PA story CRIME Drugs.
