I remember reading an article a long time ago about a passenger finding a (mock)weapon in his luggage. Turns out it was put in there by a government organization to test the process through security, except that they forgot to take it out again. I cannot find the link unfortunately.
- CTDOCodebases 4y agoThis sounds plausible. Judging by the size and description of the object it was not this though. A while ago there was a big court case in Bali in which an Australian who was travelling there was accused of importing drugs from Australia. As part of their defence they claimed that the drugs found in the luggage was not theirs and that the most likely explanation was that it was evidence of some type of interstate drug smuggling operation. During this time a high ranking member of the Australian Federal Police came forward and said that it was well known within the AFP that criminals were using unsuspecting travelers luggage to smuggle drugs. At the same time people started coming forth claiming that they had returned home from travelling overseas and found drugs in their luggage. Scared and not knowing what to do they flushed it down the toilet.
