KINGSTON: Two alleged drug mules have been arrested after disembarking flights from the Dutch Caribbean island of Curacao Jamaican police said.
The Jamaica Constabulary Force identified the two suspects as Jamaican women who worked as market vendors. They recently returned to Jamaica on separate flights from Curacao and were detained by authorities at Kingston’s international airport.
