Nobanda Nolubabalo's Cocaine Dreadlocks Images

By now you must have heard of Nobanda Nolubabalo, the 23 year-old South African who was arrested in Bangkok on Monday. She is accused of being a drug mule and was allegedly carrying 1.5kg of cocaine, hidden in her dreadlocks. Photos of customs officers searching her hair have since appeared online.



The drugs have a street value of R1,2m! The people who hired her allegedly only paid her a little over R15 000 for this “job” that could now cost her her life. This is because Thailand has some of the toughest anti-drugs laws on the planet, with judges permitted to impose the death penalty for traffickers.



Nobanda was arrested on the very same day that another South African, Janice Linden, was killed by lethal injection after she was caught in November 2008 trying to smuggle 3kg of crystal meth into the southern Chinese city of Guangzhou.
