KUALA LUMPUR: A man was caught with RM1mil worth of cocaine in the first big haul of the drug so far this year.

The 22-year-old man, supposedly a drug mule for an African cartel, had just landed at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport from Africa when a team of Bukit Aman Narcotics Crime Investigation Department (NCID) and Special Tactical Intelligence Narcotics Group (STING) officers picked him up at around 6pm on Friday.
