Yeah, lots of those and old episodes still on Youtube: border security; to catch a smuggler; real responders and many more. You would expect smugglers to watch these as well to improve their MO. Like that guy this week in PNH with the meth packages taped to his body, what was he thinking!

Recently watched an inventive one, where the bad guys had an accomplice at baggage handling (US). So they had cocaine in a suitcase brought by one person from abroad, this handler would remove the tags and move the bag from international to a domestic baggage belt. Another accomplice booked a domestic flight arriving around the same time and picked up the bags. Domestic so no further checks, just walk out. That the handler cruised his cart around the tarmac (probably to check whether he got followed) was caught on CCTV, judged as suspicious and that gave their operation away.

In theorie Catry could prove the innocence from the other one, but he died. Two weeks ago a belgian getted out of prison in Iran after a lot of negotiating with belgian authoroties, and the case from Cambodia came again in the press, that the governement should do more for Taller, to get him out before he also dies in Phnom Penh. But no official explanation from "upstairs" !! ??
The guy in Iran was convicted as a spy, but had nothig to do with drugs, thats probably why they moved they asses a little more, when drugs are involved useally they get very deafff in Brussels !!
