Hong Kong Customs says it seized about 20 kilograms of suspected MDMA worth HK$4 million at the airport on Thursday.

A 31-year-old woman arriving from Vancouver was arrested after officers found the drugs in her checked luggage.

An investigation is ongoing.

Customs said it would continue targeting drug trafficking through intelligence-led enforcement and risk-based screening, particularly in high-risk regions.

The public is urged not to carry unknown items or engage in drug trafficking for money.

Trafficking dangerous drugs carries a maximum penalty of HK$5 million and life imprisonment under the Dangerous Drugs Ordinance.
