THE CANADIAN STUDENT who was charged with smuggling illegal drugs into the island on Good Friday pleaded guilty today.

Twenty-four-year-old Brittany Chelsea Kotler appeared in the District “B” Magistrates’ Court and was remanded until April 27, pending sentencing.

Kotler arrived in the island from Canada last Friday and was detained by Customs enforcement officers. A search of her luggage revealed three packages of cannabis totalling six kilogrammes hidden in a false compartment. (PR/NB)
