David Morales arrested in Japan for suspected ecstasy possession

David Morales has reportedly been arrested at a Japanese airport for ecstasy possession.
The American DJ and producer arrived at Fukuoka airport in Southern Japan after flying in from Hong Kong at roughly three:55 pm on October 6.
As reported by Japanese newspaper The Asahi Shimbun, whereas passing by customs small quantities of a white powder have been present in Morales’ carry-on suitcase. Police are stated to have discovered 5 granules of MDMA – or zero.three grams – in Morales’ possession.
Morales has denied the allegations, claiming that the substance didn't belong to him and that any individual “had possible slipped it into his belongings”, in line with police.
56-year-old Grammy winner Morales was in Japan to play at two occasions on October 6 and October 7 in Fukuoka and Tokyo respectively.
Japan is thought for its “zero-tolerance” method to drug-related crimes.
We have contacted David Morales' staff and are awaiting an official assertion.
