S'porean charged in Australia with importing 40kg of drugs

In a statement on Feb 25, the Australian Federal Police and Australian Border Force said the 55-year-old allegedly imported 32kg of methamphetamine and 8kg of cocaine hidden in his luggage.

Court documents obtained by The Straits Times gave the man's name as Shanmugam Sundar Darmaraju.

According to the authorities in Australia, the man had initially claimed he was not travelling with checked luggage, after Australian Border Force officers stopped him when he arrived in Sydney on a flight from Malaysia on Feb 20.

He was then cleared to depart Sydney Airport.
