Customs officials said they've seized two kilograms of suspected methamphetamine at the airport on Saturday.

They said the suspected drugs – with an estimated market value of about HK$1.1 million – were concealed inside two African drums known as djembes.

Authorities said they arrested a 36-year-old driver, who the drug traffickers allegedly hired to pick up the consignment from the airport.
