A Sophia woman is in the custody of the Customs Anti Narcotics Unit after she attempted to post just under two pounds of powdered cocaine hidden in cosmetics containers.
The woman was arrested on Thursday afternoon after she turned up at the Georgetown Post Office with the package of cosmetics and attempted to have it posted to an address in spain.
The package was opened and inspected by CANU agents and the “make up” powder tested positive as cocaine. She was taken to CANU headquarters to be questioned. Her name has not been released but she is believed to be in her late 40’s.
Over the past two months, cocaine has been busted in just about every form in different types of food items including mettai, pine tarts and even in the fruit awara.
The Customs Anti Narcotics Unit has been recording an increase in drug busts over the past year.
