The heir to the £5.4 billion Tetra Pak drinks carton empire has been arrested on suspicion of possessing crack cocaine and heroin.

Hans Kristian Rausing, 44, was detained at his Chelsea home after his American-born wife Eva, also 44, was allegedly caught trying to smuggle small “wraps” of drugs into a function at the US embassy in Grosvenor Square.

Mrs Rausing said today: “I have made a serious mistake which I very much regret. I intend to leave as soon as possible to seek the help that I very much needed.”

Mrs Rausing was arrested at the embassy in Mayfair just after 4pm on Tuesday after being challenged by security guards.

Police were called and she was taken to Charing Cross police station for questioning.

Officers then raided the Rausings’ £5 million home and allegedly found £2,000 worth of drugs.
