Detectives at the Directorate of Criminal Investigations have arrested a 27-year-old Ugandan woman suspected of trafficking hard drugs.
The detectives say Bizu Rubi was arrested at a hotel on Jogoo road following a tip-off from a member of the Public.
“She is believed to have been waiting for her Kenyan contact to deliver the drugs (heroin) to him,” DCI tweeted.
According to a Tweet by the DCI, the pellets were carefully concealed as potato crisps.
