During the checks on the passengers who disembarked from the plane from Bologna, a Nigerian showed signs of nervousness, an attitude that made the Flying Squad agents suspicious, who decided to investigate further.

Taken to the emergency room of the Santissima Trinità, he underwent x-ray tests which showed the presence of numerous foreign bodies in the digestive system.
During emergency hospitalization, the man expelled the hundred eggs containing heroin and cocaine. Arrested, after discharge from hospital he was taken to Uta prison.
