From Tokyo, With Love
A customs officer at the Tokyo airport recently went against company regulations and hid a package of 142 grams of marijuana in a random passenger’s luggage to test airport security. According to this article by the BBC News, the passenger unknowingly walked away with it when the “Sniffer dogs failed to detect the cannabis and the officer could not remember which bag he had put it in.”
If it weren’t for the fact that you can go to prison in Japan for even the smallest amounts of marijuana, I’d consider this a blessing.
Officials are asking that whoever finds the package contact them, but come on - If you found 5 ounces of weed in your bag when you got to your hotel, what would you do with it? I’m sure calling the police to tell them about it is the last thing that comes to mind.
