Anti-Narcotics detectives based at the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) on Friday arrested a 25-year-old woman attempting to smuggle drugs to India.
The woman identified as Caroline Wanjiku Mwangi was nabbed as she tried to board a flight to Goa, India.
Upon her arrest, the detectives opened her luggage only to find 1.3 kilograms of Cocaine
“Upon opening them, detectives found a white powdery substance neatly packed and wrapped in yellow cellotape, definitely not your average souvenir. A spot test confirmed the officers’ suspicions; the results indicated that the powdery substance was Cocaine weighing 1.3 kilograms,” said DCI.
Wanjiku is currently under custody at the JKIA Police Station, undergoing processing, awaiting her court appearance.
Meanwhile, the seized narcotics have being detained as exhibits.
