A 26-YEAR-OLD American woman pleaded guilty today to trafficking cannabis valued at $60 000 and is now awaiting sentence.
Juhair Hussain Mohammed Al-Hulais was charged with possession of cannabis, possession with intent to supply, trafficking and importation.
She arrived at the Grantley Adams International Airport on Tuesday.
During a search, a customs officer discovered three boxes with soap powder labels.
A search of these boxes revealed 44 transparent wrapped packages containing cannabis. Al-Hulais and her luggage, with the 15 pounds of cannabis, were turned over to police.
When she appeared before the District ‘B’ Magistrate Court on Wednesday, she pleaded guilty to all of the offences and was remanded to Her Majesty Prison Dodds until October 18, pending sentencing. (PR/SAT)
