A woman who secreted almost 100 pellets of cocaine inside and outside her body inadvertently showed Border Force officers pictures of the drug on her phone.

Larissa Lins, 27, had been stopped at Manchester Airport after flying from Brazil. She claimed she had come to the UK to ‘research nice places’ having flown through France and Portugal previously.

Denying she had brought anything illegal into the country, she showed officers pictures of her time in France. However, as they scrolled, they came across a picture of the ‘white pellets’ and further searches revealed that Lins had ingested, secreted and concealed a kilo of the drug both internally and externally.
