Australia has charged a big busted Malaysian woman with attempting to smuggle heroin into Melbourne by hiding the drugs under her boobs.
Officials of the Customs Department say they suspected the woman may have been carrying drugs when she arrived Thursday at Melbourne International Airport on a flight from Bangkok, walking carefully while holding her breasts high.
A female officer conducted a frisk search and found "inconsistencies" under her bra, which turned out to be a package of white powder taped up under each big boob, customs officials said in a statement Saturday.
The statement said the two packages contained approximately 16 ounces of heroin.
"That can lead to a lot of people getting hooked", stated one official. "I mean on heroin, not tit. Well, both I guess."
The 33-year-old woman will appear in court in April. She faces a maximum penalty of 25 years imprisonment and/or fine of 550,000 Australian dollars ($356,000).
"It's probably our biggest bust", added Jim Kearney, another Customs employee.
