The contraband worth over US$11 000 was concealed under blankets
and was supposed to have been transported by bus to Harare.
The Herald reports that Vesca Macheke of Tshidixwa suburb
(old medium) in Beitbridge appeared before Beitbridge Magistrate court this
Friday charged with unlawful dealing in dangerous drugs and contravening a
section of the Medicines and Allied Substances Act.
She was granted her US$200 bail. She will return to court
on October 1 for trial. She also ordered the accused to surrender her passport
and report twice a week on Mondays and Thursdays at Beitbridge police station.
The court heard that the woman’s luck ran out when security
agents acting on a tip-off pounced on the bus before it could leave Beitbridge.
