A man has tried to escape a country by hiding inside a suitcase to evade airport security checks.

The man can be seen being dragged inside a heavy bag by a friend at the Jorge Chavez International Airport in Peru's capital Lima.

But officials say the man, who was also wearing a rucksack, began acting nervously so he was questioned and asked to open his bags.
