52-year-old Bola Adebisi has broken a previous record for ingested drugs set on March 30, 2011, by another Nigerian man, 46-year-old Yomade Aborishade, who was arrested for ingesting four pounds of heroin in 100 pellets.
Airport authorities at the Dulles International Airport, Washinton, say Bola Adebisi ingested an incredible 180 thumb-sized pellets filled with heroin.
gathered from international sources that officials became suspicious of her when she was questioned after arriving on Ethiopian Airlines flight 500 from Adis Ababa. Bola was said to have claimed she was visiting her brother in the U.S., but she was unable give details of her “brother” and his address.
A routine pat-down showed that her belly was suspiciously rigid, and an X-ray revealed to astonished officials that she had in her stomach 180 thumb-sized pellets with a total weight of five pounds. “We were kind of shocked and surprised at the sheer number of pellets she ingested. We usually see men twice her size ingest about half of what she did,” says Steve Sapp of the Customs and Border Protection.
The lady was taken to the hospital where she passed out all the pellets containing heroin worth an estimated 150,000 pounds. Bola will be prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Virginia.
Latest statistics, from what Naijapals learnt, is that over 50% of foreign females in UK jails are mostly drug mules from Jamaica and Nigerian.
