TWO GERMANS and a Moroccan man are facing the death penalty on charges of smuggling more than 10kg of methamphetamine into Malaysia, known for its strict anti-drug laws.
A district court near the Kuala Lumpur International Airport charged the three men on Jan 13 with drug trafficking, said a customs official who declined to be named.
Airport officials arrested the men arriving from Istanbul on Jan 1 after finding 10.2kg of methamphetamine hidden in the bags they were carrying, the official told AFP on Wednesday.
He said no plea had been recorded from the three pending the case's transfer to a high court once a chemist report on the drugs is ready. (Agencies)
