Default Passenger 'vomits drugs bags'
Passenger 'vomits drugs bags'

A PASSENGER on an Australian-bound plane vomited up a bag of white powder suspected to be heroin, forcing the plane to turn back to Vietnam, according to newspaper reports there.

The Vietnam Airlines plane had been flying for an hour after leaving Ho Chi Minh City on Saturday when an Australian man of Vietnamese descent took ill, airline officials told the state-run Tuoi Tre newspaper.

The aircraft turned around and made an emergency landing at Tan Son Nhat Airport, where the man coughed up two more bags of white powder. He was detained by police and taken to hospital.

Another newspaper, Lao Dong, reported that doctors found another 30 bags in the man's stomach.

It identified him as 35-year-old Nguyen Kant.

The aircraft took off again for the flight to Sydney early yesterday, officials said.

In March, a man was arrested at the Ho Chi Minh City airport while checking in for a flight to Sydney. He was accused of trafficking 1.1kg of heroin.

At the same airport in February, an Australian woman was arrested after being caught with 1.5kg of heroin in her luggage.

Several Australians of Vietnamese descent have been arrested for trafficking heroin to Australia from Vietnam in recent years and at least four were sentenced to death.
