Addis Ababa: A British man has been arrested after Ethiopian authorities
found 8kg of cannabis hidden in lampshades he was trying to smuggle out
of the country, the state-run news agency said.

The head of Ethiopia's drug control service, Dejene Bekele, told
Ethiopian News Agency (ENA) that the Briton was detained on Saturday at
Bole International Airport, near Addis Ababa.

“The suspect was arrested while trying to smuggle the cannabis out of
the country by hiding it in four traditionally made lampshades,” Dejene
said.

The man claims to have bought the cannabis in the town of Shashemene,
240 km from Addis.
