Housewife held at airport, 5 kg ketamine seized


A housewife from Chennai was arrested at the Mumbai International Airport on Monday night for carrying five kg of ketamine to Kuala Lumpur .
Gopi Janaki (41), a resident of Kolathur , was allegedly working in connivance with her husband, who was scheduled to meet her in Malaysia.
“It looks like she was picked [for the job] as no one will suspect that a housewife will carry drugs. Though we have yet not traced her husband, we suspect that she was tricked into doing this by him,” said Sameer Wankhede, Deputy Customs Commissioner, Mumbai Airport. He, however, refused to divulge the name of her husband.
“The drugs were hidden in the false bottom of her bag. We suspect that she made trips to Malaysia before,” said Mr. Wankhede.
