U.N. Sees an Unexpected Arrival: Bags of Drugs

UNITED NATIONS — If you are a United Nations diplomat missing 30 pounds of cocaine, it is now in the hands of the New York Police Department.

The shipment turned up last week in the mailroom of the world body, where phony diplomatic pouches into which the drug had been stuffed attracted the staff’s attention, the head of security, Gregory Starr, said Thursday.
