US EditionNDLEA arrests Iran-bound woman with cocaine in private part, stomach, bag at PH airport
- NDLEA arrested Ihensekhien Miracle Obehi on May 3, 2025, at Port Harcourt International Airport while she attempted to smuggle cocaine to Iran on a Qatar Airways flight via Doha.
- The arrest followed credible intelligence about Obehi concealing cocaine in her private part, stomach, and handbag, where she used a hijab to evade security checks.
- She concealed 67 cocaine pellets by swallowing them and hid additional quantities—three packets inside her genital area and two parcels in a hidden compartment of her handbag—totaling 2.523 kilograms of a Class A drug.
- Obehi confessed she was to swallow 70 pellets but could not and relocated the remaining three inside her private part before expelling all swallowed wraps after days of observation.
- The interception disrupted a desperate drug export attempt and highlighted NDLEA's effective intelligence-led operations to curb international trafficking at Nigerian airports.
