Naseeruddin dead at a hotel in Sharjah yesterday morning

Police found a man they believe to be a Pakistani drugs mule dead at a hotel in Sharjah yesterday morning. The dead man, identified as Naseeruddin, was believed to have been in his thirties. It is thought he died due to poisoning from the drugs. Sharjah Police recovered 40 capsules of drugs from his stomach, although it was not clear yesterday exactly what the drugs were.

He had arrived at the Monaco hotel last Saturday, but had not been seen since checking in. Police were called after a cleaner realised the room had been locked for two days and noticed a foul smell coming from it. “The cleaner immediately alerted the hotel management who in turn called police to break open the door at around 1am on Wednesday,” a source at Sharjah Police said.
When officers entered the room the body was already partially decomposed. Staff at the Monaco hotel yesterday refused to comment. Dubai Customs recently foiled a daring attempt by a Pakistani passenger to smuggle 1,000 grammes of heroin into the country. Around 100 capsules of the drug were removed from the passenger’s intestines.
