The incident happened during the weekend in Sukhumvit Soi 11, downtown Bangkok, when the officers were acting on a tip-off that the Nigerian man was dealing in cocaine.

Earlier, they had arrested a 29-year-old lady identified as Catherine, who was in possession of the Class 2 drug. She said she got it from a black man.

A sting was set up and the 38-year-old Nigerian man identified as hidozie W.E, arrived in a Toyota Corolla Altis.

He parked and called Catherine to enter the car to receive the drugs contained in several packages.

Seven packets of cocaine were excreted from the Nigeria man.
