- Namibian woman Pauline Mbangula was arrested in South Africa after an X-ray screening revealed drugs in her stomach.
- A woman was reportedly on vacation in Brazil with her Nigerian boyfriend, who convinced her to swallow drugs for smuggling.
- Brigadier Athlenda Mathe of the South African Police Service reported that Mbangula had successfully disposed of 68 suspected cocaine capsules by noon yesterday.
A Namibian lady named Pauline Mbangula was apprehended in South Africa on Sunday after an air terminal X-beam screening purportedly identified drugs disguised inside her stomach.
It is accounted for that she was an extended get-away in Brazil with her Nigerian beau, who convinced her to ship drugs by ingesting them.
Brigadier Athlenda Mathe, a delegate of the South African Police Administration (SAPS), informed Namibian Sun that Mbangula had removed 68 cases of thought cocaine by early afternoon the next day.
“She will be taken to the hospital to ensure all capsules have been expelled. She is under close observation and has not been placed in a cell because she needs to eliminate the drugs from her system,” Mathe stated.
Mbangula, matured 30, is said to have made a trip from Luanda to Brazil with her beau, who persuaded her to think they were setting out on a get-away. Upon their appearance, he persuaded her to swallow the medications.
Upon their re-visitation of South Africa, she was supposed to meet an accessory, whose character stays obscure to the specialists, who might help her in exploring the designated spots, as made sense of by Mashadi Selepe, one more representative for SAPS, during a meeting with Namibian public telecaster NBC.
