French border guards have arrested a woman they’re describing as a drugs mule at the Gaillard crossing.
The 30-year-old woman was travelling in a taxi when found to be carrying nearly 8 kilos of drugs.
She told the police she’d arrived from Brazil into Zurich, had taken a train to Geneva and was to deliver the drugs to Annemasse.
She’s due in court in Thonon le Bains.
