Alleged heroin smugglers arrested at Brisbane Airport

A Nigerian man and a Thai woman have been arrested for allegedly trying to import almost 1.4 kilograms of heroin into Australia through Brisbane, Australian Federal Police have confirmed.
The 27 year old woman was stopped at Brisbane International Airport on Sunday after flying in from India.
An x-ray of her bag allegedly revealed a possible concealment of narcotics, and white powder was allegedly discovered when Customs officers drilled inside.
Preliminary tests confirmed the substance was heroin.
She was then arrested and charged with importing a marketable quantity of a border-controlled drug.
The 38 year old man was arrested yesterday after travelling from Sydney to Brisbane.
