.... at least if he had some prior knowledge about the contraband in the luggage before he recovered it.
I can almost guarantee that he did NOT show up to where he was supposed to without that suitcase. He may have arrived in the airport but I bet he did NOT see or go to the person he was supposed to be delivering that suitcase to.

It was all about fear and not fear of going to jail. It was fear for himself, his family, and probably his pet dog too but fear from the DTO not the authorities.
