A 44-year-old Filipino woman, who arrested at the Indira Gandhi International (IGI) Airport in 2006 with two kg of heroin, has been sentenced to 10 years imprisonment by a Delhi court.
Additional Sessions Judge (ASJ) MK Nagpal read out a sentence of 10 years rigorous imprisonment to Ma Sol Baillo, a resident of Manduriao in Philippines, apart from slapping a Rs1 lakh fine on her, after the court held her guilty under various sections of the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985.
The court awarded the woman the minimum sentence, bearing in mind the woman's family situation -- she has three children, and her youngest child was born with a hole in his heart.
