April 25 (Reuters) – Two former and two current security

screeners at Los Angeles International Airport have been

arrested on drug trafficking and corruption charges, accused of

taking payments to allow passage of large drug shipments,

authorities said on Wednesday.

One drug courier was in state custody in the case and

another courier was expected to surrender on Thursday, the U.S.

Attorney based in Los Angeles said in a statement.
