A 24-year-old Guyanese woman was placed in pre-trial detention at the Lyon-Corbas remand center (Rhône) and should appear immediately on Monday.
She is suspected of being a mule in charge of transporting drugs because of her multiple plane trips, says Le Dauphiné Libéré.

She was taken into custody and then brought before the prosecution on Sunday.
