Police have arrested the head of airport security at Namibia's main airport on charges he planted a dummy explosive device in luggage destined for a German flight earlier this week, Germany's interior ministry said yesterday.

Citing Namibian authorities, an interior ministry spokesman said the man was arrested for having placed a bag containing a simulated detonator on a luggage conveyor belt, and that he had admitted to doing so.

"The Namibian police have informed us that the head of Windhoek airport security was arrested yesterday evening," a spokesman said, declining to be named.

"Namibian police have no knowledge as to a possible motive," he added.

It's called "RED TEAMS" guys.... Something got really F'd up in the paperwork, ID's or procedures in this case...

Considering the persons position - the possibility of a test run by "bad guys" is virtually nil.

Maybe it was an audit to see how well airport security worked.

Thumbs up, guys!
