Shawn Ross had travelled across from his native America
An American drug mule stopped at Manchester Airport with 36 kilos of cannabis stuffed inside suitcases told officials: “It should have been clothes, bro.”
“He denied they were his, but then walked back to the customs having told officers he didn’t have anything to declare. He was then taken to the customs search room,” prosecutor David Lees said. In the black hard shell suitcase there were 33 vacuum-sealed packages of cannabis, and in the red suitcase there were 37. In total there were 70 packages, and the total weight of the drugs was 36.4 kilograms. It was said to be worth around £6,000 per kilogram and so the estimated total value was £200,000.He was arrested and gave a prepared statement to officers from the National Crime Agency, in which he said he had come to the UK to build contacts for work.
