Great people are doing this kind of research! Great find Anwar.

I really shudder if same test are done with Indian Couriers - including Indian Postal Dept.   All the figures would be multiplied by at least 5-10 times!!  even Swiss post would fare worse.

<Edit> : Strange that US Airliners let such a 'Live' package with Circuit board and a HUGE battery attached board the plane! A Paradox!! Guess they have a decent explosive detection to dare such relaxation. At least at IGI Kingfisher folks asked me remove battery from my GMRS WalkieTalkie packed in check-in baggage.
