Popular Post monty1412 Posted April 7, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 7, 2014 Unfortunately these mules are sometimes deliberately dobbed in by the organisation behind it all to create a diversion and thus flows the main shipment. While the police and immigration a fall over themselves with pride at the arrest 50kgs come in on a fight arriving shortly afterwards and goes straight through. Either they are informed on or are given an itinerary such as this lady had that is bound to lead to questions........ 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandhurstmolonski Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Unfortunately a very Small Fish , better to let her " Run " and see what can be Found . Uncovering the Tiny , Broke ..Mules is of NO benefit , if your goal is to cut supply ..The Whole thing is a waste of time ( with a Rational View ) because the Supply side will never be restricted , too many Vested Interests .. Sorry Lady ..But you may well have been tossed up as some form of compromise , Really just a waste of Space . The Wrong person fronting up yet again , as the horrendous Villian . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
