A Nigerian woman, a street vendor who had been living in Italy since 2013 , was arrested this morning by Guardia di Finanza soldiers and Customs Agency officials at Bergamo airport. She was traveling from Brussels and headed to Alghero airport; Belgian customs had filed a report about her.

Hence the search. The woman was unable to provide any explanation for her trip and had no luggage. Thus, when pressed, she admitted to carrying drugs .

Radiological tests performed at Bergamo hospital confirmed that the woman had ingested 120 ovules, nearly 1.4 kilograms of heroin intended for transport to Sardinia. She is now in prison.
