Couple Accused Of Trying To Smuggle 5-Month-Old Son In Luggage At Airport

HARJAH, United Arab Emirates (CBSDC) — An Egyptian couple is accused of trying to smuggle their 5-month-old child in their luggage at the Sharjah International Airport in the United Arab Emirates.

Officials found the baby after the couple’s luggage went through an X-ray machine Saturday morning.

“When customs officials saw the baby inside the bag at the X-ray scanner, they were stunned,” police officials told Gulf News. “This machine is very dangerous for anyone, let alone a baby in a bag to pass through.”
