SAA pilot in cocaine bust
Ziegfried Ekron
Cape Town - An SAA pilot was arrested at the Cape Town International Airport for attempting to smuggle 4.5kg cocaine out of the country in a secret compartment of his suitcase.
Police provincial spokesperson Captain Etienne Terblanche said border police doing a routine search of flight personnel's luggage, found cocaine worth at least R1 million in a false bottom in a 40-year-old first officer's suitcase on Wednesday.
The flight to London, Flight SA 220, scheduled to depart at 19:35, only left at 21:45.
Airport personnel declined to confirm the reason for the delay, but SAA national spokesperson Rich Mkhondo said management received the news of the haul "with grave concern".
"We have very clear rules about this and we will not tolerate drug smuggling by our employees. The person will be temporarily suspended and, if found guilty, chances are he will lose his job."
Mkhondo said he could not recall a similar incident at the airport.
Terblanche praised the SAA for the company's co-operation.
He said it was not clear whether the drugs were destined for Britain or Europe, adding that the crew was scheduled to stop over in London for two days.
Meanwhile, provincial police chief Commander Lennit Max praised police for their excellent work, saying combating the drug trade was one of the service's top priorities.
South African Airways Company announced on Wednesday that security would be beefed up at the country's airports in preparation for the World Summit on Sustainable Development in Johannesburg next month.
