Drug smugglers used couriers to smuggle cocaine into Canada in religious books during the Christmas period have been smashed by customs officers at Pearson airport.
Two drug mules were arrested in separate incidents this month after more than $850,000 in drugs were found in holy books packed in luggage entering the country on flights from the Caribbean, Customs officials confirmed. A 21-year-old visitor from Barbados was arrested after four kilograms of coke worth $550,000 was found in the binding of a Bible and other books. Another 21-year-old man, who claimed to be visiting from St. Vincent, was arrested a day later arriving from Guyana with 2.5 kilos of coke worth about $310,000 inside a Bible and in the false bottom of a suitcase.
