‘Priest’ held at airport on drug charges

Russia’s anti-narcotics agency says a Colombian claiming to be a Roman Catholic priest has been arrested at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo Airport carrying 780 grams of cocaine, some of it in his stomach. The Federal Counter-Narcotics Service said Wednesday that the man, wearing clerical garb, was detained when he appeared ill and nervous. He was taken to a hospital where 13 containers of cocaine were found in his stomach and five more in his luggage.
