Officials said the incident occurred at around 10 AM at Terminal-III of IGIA when CISF officials found activities of a Bengaluru-bound flier, identified as Webula Micheal, suspicious.
Security personnel carried out a thorough frisking during which, they said, a total of 108 grams of narcotics suspected to be cocaine was recovered from his baggage.
The contraband was reportedly packed and concealed in a tablet and half a dozen capsules.
They said Micheal was later handed over to anti-narcotics sleuths who arrested him under relevant laws.
“The estimated value of the contraband is Rs 7.5 lakh,” they said.
The officials said Micheal has a valid business visa till December 21.
