He attempted to board a flight to Sardinia with 700 grams of heroin.

But the woman, a 36-year-old Nigerian resident in the Caserta area, was checked in the departure hall of Naples Capodichino airport by the Finance Police and officials of the Customs and Monopolies Agency, while waiting to board the plane for Alghero.

The checks on the luggage and on the person made it possible to find 62 ovules containing heroin that the woman kept hidden inside her undergarments.

The drug, "cut" and placed on the market, would have yielded over 100 thousand euros.

The traveler was arrested, charged with drug trafficking, and transferred to the women's prison in Pozzuoli.
