SINGAPORE: The Central Narcotics Bureau (CNB) and the Immigration & Checkpoints Authority (ICA) have thwarted a smuggling attempt of 7.1kg of Ice at the Changi Airport.

It is the largest single Ice seizure this year.

At about 8.30pm on 25 October, a CNB officer checked on a female South African at the arrival hall of Changi Airport Terminal 3.

When the woman's luggage went through an X-ray, ICA officers noticed anomalies.

Upon checking, CNB officers found two wrapped bundles in a small bag in the woman's luggage, believed to be Ice. The drugs had a street value of about S$1.4m.

The 43-year-old woman was immediately arrested. Investigations are ongoing. If convicted, she may face the death penalty. - CNA/ir
