One of Benfica’s coaches was arrested by the Polícia Judiciária (PJ) on suspicion of collaborating with a Lisbon Airport employee in diverting suitcases containing cocaine linked to international trafficking.
According to the authorities, he allegedly helped a friend, an airport worker, remove the luggage from the usual collection and inspection process, allowing access to the narcotic.

The investigation, which had been underway for approximately four months, led to the arrest of the two suspects last Friday.
The Polícia Judiciária is continuing its inquiries to determine the scale of the alleged trafficking network and the origin of the cocaine.
