A Latvian woman, aged 28, will appear before an Arima magistrate Tuesday on a charge of attempting to traffic four kilograms of cocaine.
Officers of the Organised Crime, Narcotics and Firearms Bureau (OCNFB) arrested the woman on Sunday afternoon at Piarco International Airport as she was about to board a plane to Gatwick Airport in the UK.
Police were doing regular checks when they noticed that the suspect was "acting suspiciously" while she waited the in-transit area of the airport. They did a thorough check and discovered the "Colombian pure" high-grade cocaine in a gutted-out camera charger.Police say the drugs have an estimated street value of $1.4 million.
