A Brit mum-of-two accused of trying to smuggle £1.6million of drugs into Mauritius inside her son's suitcase has claimed she was coerced.
Natashia Artug, 35, allegedly stuffed 24 packages of cannabis weighing 14kg inside her six-year-old son's wheelie case.
The mum from Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire, was held along with seven other people accused of trying to smuggle a total of 161kg into the tropical island in the Indian Ocean.
The lad was picked up by customs officials when the group landed at Sir Seewoosagur Ramgoolam Airport last month.
The boy was initially held by Mauritian cops but has since been released and is now back in the UK with his father.
Natashia is said to be 'vulnerable' and claims she was coerced into travelling to Mauritius by drug traffickers who threatened her family.
