JOHANNESBURG - Yet another drug mule has been arrested at the OR Tambo International Airport - the eleventh in two months.
A 21-year-old South African woman was arrested on Sunday for trafficking drugs found in her stomach.
She was profiled and intercepted when arriving on a flight from São Paulo, Brazil.
Police spokesperson Athlenda Mathe:
“She was taken to a local hospital where an X-ray confirmed that she was having foreign objects in her stomach. She has already released a number of bullets from her body and is in police custody where police are closely monitoring the release of further drug bullets.”
Last week, a 30-year-old Namibian drug mule was arrested after arriving from São Paulo with more than 60 drug bullets found in her stomach.
