Kenyan Woman Arrested in Hong Kong Carrying Sh15 Million Cocaine Inside Her Body

Authorities in Hong Kong are detaining a Kenyan woman for smuggling a narcotic substance believed to be cocaine into the Chinese city.

Hong Kong police said the cocaine, which was concealed inside the 35-year-old’s woman body, was held in 67 pellets and has an estimated street value of HK$900,000 (approximately Sh15.4 million).

The suspect, who is said to have been acting suspiciously, was intercepted on April 9th at the Hong Kong International Airport after arriving from Nairobi via Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

She was picked up by customs officers at the airport for inspection and later escorted to a local hospital for examination.

While waiting for the examination, the woman allegedly excreted the suspected drugs and was arrested immediately after.

"As at April 10, the arrested woman has excreted 67 pellets of suspected cocaine weighing about 1 kg in total," Hong Kong's Customs Excise Department said in a statement.

"The maximum penalty upon conviction is a fine of HK$5 million (about Sh85 million) and life imprisonment," the Customs Department added.

No sympathy what so ever...
Well, this one wins the infamous FEMME FATALE award of the month.
As the saying goes, behind every successful man,there is a strong women.Like wise, behind every female criminal,there is a crooked man;in this case more likely a naija man.
Again folks,what has happened to our women? Crimes that used to be a preserve of men are now almost dominated by women.What happened to the gentler,softer,kinder sex? Or was this just a facade?
This mode of transporting drugs by mules was popularized by Naijas in the 80s,and 90s.I wonder if it's success in the past has prompted a return.Luckly for her the pellets did not burst in her tummy...Anyway,let her have her aday in count,and hopefully implicate the other cocospirators.Obviously,she has brought shame to her family.Especially to mama and papa.This is not how you want your daughter to earn aliving.At least I would hope so.
