Two crew members of Airk Air were on Monday arrested by the United Kingdom Border Force for being in possession of substances suspected to be cocaine.
A statement by the Head of Press and Public Affairs Section, British High Commission, Rob Fitzpatrick, on Tuesday confirmed the arrest of the crew members.
He said, “The two, Nigerian women aged 37 and 32, who worked for the airline Arik Air, had arrived on a flight from Lagos, Nigeria on the evening of Monday, May 20.
“They were arrested after a package of drugs was discovered by Border Force officers on a bus which had been used to transport air crew.
