British student jailed for smuggling cannabis from Thailand

A British student’s attempt to smuggle 33kg of cannabis from Thailand to Amsterdam ended in arrest during a layover in Vienna. The 29-year-old claimed he was lured by a promise of €10,000 to cover university tuition, worth up to €100,000. His girlfriend, 24, was also arrested. Facing up to 15 years in prison, the court showed leniency, sentencing him to 30 months, with only six months served due to time already detained. The girlfriend received a suspended one-year sentence. The judge emphasized “general prevention,” highlighting the consequences of criminal acts, even under financial strain.
