Iranian smuggling drugs he swallowed dies

An Iranian national attempting to smuggle drugs into Azerbaijan died in a village in the country’s borderline Astara district after swallowing the illegal drugs.
A forensic autopsy on the dead Iranian was ordered to investigate the incident. It revealed that Bani Saffari, 31, was carrying 119 rolls of narcotic substance in his abdomen and eight rolls in his intestines.
According to preliminary estimates, Saffari’s death was caused by the opening of one of the rolls in his stomach.
A total of 340 grams of drugs were removed from the Iranian citizen’s organs. *
