A German and a Brazilian have been arrested on drug trafficking charges at Sao Paulo's Guarulhos International Airport.

The two men were allegedly trying to smuggle cocaine onboard an Iberian flight from Brazil to Madrid, Spain. One of the men, the 48-year old German, was reportedly found with 20 kilograms of cocaine in his suitcases while the 26-year-old Brazilian was found to be carrying 5 kilograms of the drug in a suitcase with a fake bottom.

Police said that the two men were not travelling together, reported The Associated Press.
