A PLANNED honeymoon in Bali that went sour sent a man into the arms of the law for carrying drugs and his bride into hysterics when he was caught, Metro Ahad reported.
Sources from the Bukit Aman narcotics unit told the paper that the 38-year-old suspect from Penang was nabbed by Indonesian authorities at the Ngurah Rai International Airport as soon as the couple arrived from the KL International Airport on Friday.
Enforcement officers were suspicious of a strange object that was detected when the man walked through the airport scanner. A subsequent body search showed a plastic package filled with a white powdery substance in the man's trouser pocket.
On further inspection, it was found that he was carrying 2.49gm of the synthetic ketamine drug that is popular among disco goers.
His wife became hysterical when her husband was nabbed and had to be calmed by sympathetic passengers at the airport.
The suspect later admitted he brought the drug from Penang to have more fun during his honeymoon, which the couple had planned for quite some time.
It is learned that the man will be charged in court soon for a drug offence that could see him spending at least 10 years in jail, the sources said.
