A drugs mule who swallowed 99 bags of cocaine weighing more than a kilogram before entering Britain has been jailed. Jean Da Silva Oliveira tried to smuggle the class A drugs with a street value of around £100,000 from Sao Paolo in his native Brazil.

The 22-year-old smuggler was stopped by Border Force Officials when he landed at Heathrow airport last month. He was arrested when officials suspected he had provided a false account.
