Something fishy about ecstasy haul

A Canadian faces a drug smuggling charge after Customs officers found two kilograms of ecstacy tablets in plastic bottles labelled "Salmon Oil".
The 50-year-old man, who arrived at Tullamarine Airport in Melbourne yesterday on a flight from Vancouver via Hong Kong, was arrested after an analysis of the pink tablets allegedly tested positive to MDMA ecstacy.
The tablets were embossed with dolphin symbols, Customs said.
The man was charged by Australian Federal Police with trying to import a prohibited import and possessing a prohibited import and was due to appear in Melbourne Magistrates Court today.
I bit silly if you ask me. Medicine bottles always grab customs attention. Why couldnt he just hide it in his arse like a normal person?
