Customs officials in the American state of Baltimore have arrested a man returning from Ghana with more than three kilogrammes of heroin hidden in the false bottom of a suitcase.
The seizure was made at the Baltimore-Washington International Airport.
Twenty-six-year-old Suleiman Zakaria was arrested on Tuesday. He had just returned to the state from Accra when a roving officer referred him for a secondary examination.
Officers also seized almost $6000 from Zakaria, who is now in custody.
