A pilot accused of smuggling 70,114 ecstasy pills in his plane also allegedly tested positive for several substances when he was arrested. The Malaysia Airlines employee, 39, was arrested last Tuesday after authorities say they found him with 57 pounds of illegal drugs at Soekarno–Hatta International Airport in Tangerang, Indonesia, after flight MH272, with 170 passengers onboard, landed from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Malaysia’s Directorate General of Customs and Excise released a video on Friday showing the man, known only by his initial, MS, passing through customs before being searched by officers. A social media post with the footage said that when they did so, they “also seized a small bottle of urine, suspected of being prepared to falsify urine test results if required during the investigation.” Indonesian National Police said he had been promised the equivalent of $12,200 to take the drugs to Jakarta. According to INP, airport Customs and Excise boss Hengky Tomuan Parlindungan Aritonang said: “The pilot tested positive for MDMA, ecstasy, methamphetamine and cocaine in his urine test. This means he likely used drugs while flying to Indonesia.” “Malaysia Airlines wishes to reiterate that it does not tolerate any form of misconduct and is currently undertaking an internal review of the matter,” it told the Associated Press.
