Nigerian woman sets new record in drug smuggling

Bola Adebisi, a Nigerian woman last weekend (Saturday) set an unfortunate record at the Dulles International Airport when she tried to smuggle almost five pounds of heroin she swallowed into the United States of America. The handout photo provided by the US Customs and Border Protection shows 2157.4g of ingested heroin pellets. The 52-year-old woman said she ingested 180 thumb-sized pellets filled with $150,000 worth of heroin. The previous record for an ingested drug seizure at Dulles occurred last year, when another Nigerian was discovered with more than four pounds of pellets. Customs officials at Dulles International Airport in Virginia, say she has been charged with drug smuggling in federal court Alexandra in the United States.
