A Malaysian pilot risks the death penalty in Indonesia after he was arrested at Jakarta's international airport with more than 70,000 ecstasy tablets in his suitcase, according to police who said Friday the man was on drugs while flying a passenger plane.
The 39-year-old pilot, identified only by his initials, MSO, was arrested earlier this week at Soekarno-Hatta international airport, shortly after arriving from Kuala Lumpur, according to the customs office.
