According to ANA, the last case of undeclared funds occurred on Tuesday night and involved a Colombian national arriving from Bogotá, who wanted to enter the country with $21,060.
According to the customs inspector, the traveler appeared to be restless and nervous, which prompted the official to carry out a more stringent inspection, during which it was revealed that the traveler in fact had hidden money dispersed among his clothes and in his luggage.
