A 44-year-old female Brazilian drug mule has been arrested at OR Tambo International Airport.
The drug trafficker had just landed from Sao Paulo on Thursday, 28 November at 13:00.
She was intercepted by SAPS intelligence and found with cocaine wrapped around her upper body.
She faces a charge of drug trafficking and will appear before the Kempton Park Magistrate soon.
This is the second drug trafficker to be arrested with cocaine wrapped around their upper torso this week.
As reported by The South African website, on Sunday, another Brazilian male drug trafficker was arrested and found in possession of R1.8 million of cocaine.
OR Tambo International Airport police continue to sniff out drug traffickers as they land sending out a strong message that South Africa is not a playground for drug peddlers.
