The woman, Tabitha Leah Ritchie, was a 28-year-old Ontario social worker. Ritchie was on her way to board a plane heading to Toronto, Canada with her belly full of cocaine.
The deputy director of Colombia’s antinarcotic police department Colonel Esteban Arias said, “The way she operated was to fool law enforcement checks by faking a pregnancy,” and noted that the drug smugglers have been getting pretty creative with where they hide their drugs.
In Tabitha Leah Ritchie’s fake pregnant belly, 2kg of cocaine was stashed inside of pocket and the fake belly was taped to her torso.
