'Pregnant' with drugs,............


'Pregnant' with drugs, woman lands in Hyderabad

 A 32-year-old South African national, who claimed to be "seven-month pregnant", was arrested for trying to smuggle in narcotic substance concealed in her belly and urogenital tract, at the RGI Airport on Sunday morning.

Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) sleuths became suspicious after looking at her passport and travel pattern over the last one week. On subjecting her to medical examination, they discovered that she had swallowed the banned drugs which were packed in small polymer packets.

The woman, Mosiea Moosa, a South African national (passport number P-A04856058), was rushed to Osmania Hospital by the NCB sleuths to get the packets of drugs out of her body.

The NCB sleuths intercepted Mosiea at the RGI Airport after she arrived from Dubai by Emirates flight EK-526 on Sunday morning. "When we intercepted her, Mosiea said she was walking with difficulty as she was seven-month pregnant. When we shifted her to a corporate hospital at the airport for preliminary examination, she admitted that she was carrying narcotics in her stomach," a NCB officer said.
The NCB sleuths then rushed her to Osmania Hospital to recover the narcotic material. By giving laxatives, the hospital staff managed to extract 16 pouches of narcotics substance (till reports came in). The NCB officials confirmed that no surgery was performed on the woman and she was under medical supervision.
