A man attempting to smuggle half a kilo of cocaine through a Madrid airport in his briefs has been (unsurprisingly) arrested.

The 43 year old was detained in Madrid’s Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas airport after arriving from Costa Rica on Monday.

Madrid police couldn’t resist tweeting a photo of the man’s suspiciously large package which contained 400g of cocaine.

Translation: A suspicious 'package' between legs!! Held in #Barajas with 400 grams of cocaine on their genitals.

Airport security uncovered the drugs during a “routine frisking”, according to The Local.

The man was charged with crimes against public health, and he faces six months to three years in prison if convicted.
