A 63-year-old woman was detained by Spanish authorities at Alicante-Elche Airport for transporting approximately 20,000 Viagra tablets. The seizure occurred during an inspection of luggage on a flight from Madrid.
According to the Guardia Civil, the passenger, from the Dominican Republic, raised suspicions when the x-ray revealed an abnormal density in the contents of her suitcase.
The pills were confiscated by authorities, who are investigating their origin and destination. This type of transport of medicines without authorization constitutes a serious offense, and the woman may face charges related to trafficking in pharmaceutical substances.
