Police in Thailand say they have arrested a 23-year-old British man for alleged drug smuggling.

George Wilson from Buckinghamshire was found with 9.1kg (20lb) of crystal meth in a Bangkok hotel room, according to officials.

The city's Metropolitan Police says it is pressing charges.

When asked about the case by Newsbeat, the Foreign Office confirmed it is "in contact with the Thai authorities following the arrest of a British man".

In a statement shared on social media, Thai police say "the investigation team received a tip-off that a group of foreigners were planning a narcotics handover at the hotel".
