57 year old Nigerian-German man, Ukachukwu
Charles Imoh (pictured above) has been
sentenced to four years in a UK prison for
trying to smuggle more than £215,000 worth
of cocaine in 83 packages into the UK.
Imoh was arrested as he arrived the UK from
Germany by ferry via UK's Dover's Eastern
Docks. He told police he was there to visit
family but they were suspicious of him. He
was taken to the hospital where he was x-
rayed and 83 wraps of cocaine which had 66%
purity level were found in his body.
Imoh was immediately arrested. He later
pleaded guilty to drug smuggling and was
sentenced to four years in jail which, under the
UK Borders Act 2007, means he will face
automatic deportation after serving his
sentence.
