SAfrican smuggler swallows 220 diamonds

POLICE in South Africa say they've arrested a 25-year-old man who swallowed 220 polished diamonds in an attempt to smuggle them out of the country.

Captain Paul Ramaloko of the South African Police Service says investigators arrested the man on Tuesday night as he waited in line at security at O.R. Tambo International Airport just outside of Johannesburg.

Ramaloko says a scan of the man's body showed the diamonds, which were later recovered. He says the man had been on his way to Dubai.

Ramaloko estimates the diamonds are worth about $US2.3 million ($A2.22 million).

Authorities believe the man belongs to a smuggling ring, as another man was arrested in March attempting the same thing.
