A drug trafficker trying to smuggle crystal meth tied to his genitals has been seized by customs officials in Germany.

The 30-year-old suspect – not named by police – was caught with 32 grammes of the drug packed in a condom and hidden in his underwear, according to local media.

The trafficker was arrested at a railway station after crossing from Germany’s border with the Czech Republic on Monday, 27th February.

The suspect – from the city of Leipzig, Saxony, Germany – and a 27-year-old friend told officials they had taken drugs while they were at a brothel over the border.

But when the pair were searched, customs police in Johanngeorgenstadt train station found the package of crystal meth strapped to the 30-year-old’s manhood.

The Main Customs Office Erfurt said in a statement obtained by Newsflash: “A rapid drug test carried out on site was positive for both men.”

Officials handed the case over to the Dresden Customs Investigation Office for further investigations.

Both men are facing prosecution under drug trafficking laws.

Crystal meth, also known as crystal methamphetamine, is reportedly a stimulant drug with desired effects such as an intense rush, a higher motivation to accomplish goals and feelings of improved intellect and ability to solve problems.

Its use can lead to severe anxiety, insomnia, and violent behaviour.
