Travelers at Berlin Brandenburg Airport Caught with 31 Kgs of Kath in their Luggage; Federal Police Involved Due to Lack of Entry Documentation
On September 30, a 28-year-old Israeli was arrested at Berlin Brandenburg Airport in Potsdam. The incident took place at the Main Customs Office in Potsdam.
According to Christiane Ullrich, the contact person at the Main Customs Office Potsdam, customs officers found only bundles of khat leaves in the individual's luggage. There were no changes of clothes or toiletries, suggesting the suspect had no intention of staying in Germany.
The public prosecutor's office in Cottbus is conducting further investigations into the incident. However, the name of the prosecutor deepening the investigation against the 28-year-old Israeli for drug law violations related to smuggling has not been disclosed.
The seizure of 31 kilograms of khat leaves led to a criminal investigation against the individual for violating the Narcotics Act and smuggling. Due to insufficient entry requirements, the traveler was handed over to the federal police for deportation.
For further questions, the Main Customs Office Potsdam can be contacted. The official website of the Main Customs Office Potsdam is www.zoll.de, and the email address for press inquiries is [email protected].
It's important to note that the penalty for the alleged crime is up to five years imprisonment or a fine.
