A British mother caught in Germany with a suitcase filled with 20kg of cannabis from Thailand has been handed a two-year suspended sentence.<\/p>\n

It means Hertfordshire resident Cameron Bradford, 24, will avoid jail.<\/p>\n

She was arrested at Munich Airport on April 22 while collecting her luggage.<\/p>\n

Investigators were alerted to Ms Bradford after she switched her flights at the last minute, with her originally being due to fly to London Heathrow via Singapore.<\/p>\n

Following her arrest, her family filed a missing persons report, concerned she had not arrived back in the UK.<\/p>\n

Ms Bradford, who has a young son, was being held in custody before being charged with attempted transit of cannabis and abetting the international trafficking of cannabis.<\/p>\n

She was allegedly ordered to go to Thailand to pick up something for a man before customs officials in Munich discovered the narcotics in her case.<\/p>\n

The 24-year-old claimed she did not know what was in the case, which was locked. <\/p>\n

In a court hearing on Wednesday, Judge Wilfried Dudek said Ms Bradford’s life had gone badly.<\/p>\n

She had suffered an early pregnancy and had mixed with the wrong crowd. <\/p>\n

He said he found it strange that she had not realised what was in the case, but added that she was pressured by the man.<\/p>\n

This comes after a British mother-of-two was arrested in Mauritius after she was accused of trying to smuggle cannabis inside her six-year-old son\u2019s suitcase.<\/p>\n

Natashia Artug, 35, from Cambridgeshire, was one of seven people detained by authorities who accused them of hiding more than 161kg of cannabis in their luggage.<\/p>\n

With an estimated street value of around \u00a31.6 million, the group were detained by border officials, with each suspect found to be carrying Apple AirTags to track their location.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, a British mother-of-three is facing the death penalty after being accused of trafficking more than \u00a3300,000 of cocaine into Bali in Angel Delight sachets.<\/p>\n

Lisa Stocker, 39, has said she was stitched up when she entered the Indonesian island with the drugs disguised as the dessert mix.<\/p>\n

“The packages were not mine, but someone else’s,\u201d she told Denpasar Central Court. \u201cI was framed.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stocker, a mum-of-three, and her partner, Jon Collyer, 39, both from East Sussex, were arrested at Bali\u2019s international airport on February 1.<\/p>\n

They had travelled from the UK through Qatar and were arrested in Bali after a routine x-ray at the airport alerted officials to the suspicious packages.<\/p>\n

The couple appeared in court with Phineas Float, 31, also of East Sussex, who is accused of receiving the packages in an airport hotel on February 3.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"6 August 2025, 16:49 Cameron Bradford was detained in Munich after being caught with cannabis in her suitcase.…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":322888,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5310],"tags":[2000,299,1824],"class_list":{"0":"post-322887","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-germany","8":"tag-eu","9":"tag-europe","10":"tag-germany"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114982658284391404","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/322887","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=322887"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/322887\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/322888"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=322887"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=322887"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=322887"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
