Pregnant Kosovars charged with transporting six cocaine bags to Switzerland

Kosovo's 32-year-old citizen had met a drug courier in the summer of 2015, who regularly drove from Amsterdam to St. Gallen, each time bringing a suitcase to Switzerland containing between two and five pounds of cocaine. The charge has been blamed for having been participating in at least five of these trips, Tagblat.ch writes.

At the hearing at the District Court in St. Gallen, the public prosecutor said she knew her boyfriend had taken a suitcase with drugs there, broadcasts albinfo.ch. According to his remarks, she did the driver's job for her boyfriend in her car. They spent the night in Amsterdam, got the case prepared with double skirts, passed Germany, then used the ferry from Friedrichshafen to Romanshorn and arrived at St. Gallen.

The accused had received compensation for their expenses in Amsterdam, the prosecutor stressed. In addition, she and her boyfriend have split the subx0-connector fee” of 2,000 CHF for suitcases.

Co-operation is complete when both are divided in late January 2016. As the prosecution continues to say, Kosovar, who has grown up in Germany and Switzerland, has met in late July 2017 with an acquaintance who was also a drug liaison between Amsterdam and St. Gallen.

The accused was pregnant at the time and had financial problems. She had asked her acquaintances to lend money, records albinfo.ch. As a reward, she would escort him to Amsterdam to get a suitcase of cocaine and bring him to Switzerland.

They both flew to Amsterdam and stayed in a hotel. Early in the morning they were taken from an African and sent to a train station near the border. From there, both took the train back to St. Cooked with a suitcase that contained cocaine on the double, fake skirt.

The defendant has firmly denied knowing about the drug shipments. She never looked at someone else's luggage. Her boyfriend told her they were going to spend a nice weekend in Amsterdam. He had promised to go to a “Coffesop” with her because she smoked marijuana at the time, broadcasts albinfo.ch. Even his new knowledge had offered him only a relaxing weekend because she was depressed at the time because of pregnancy and financial concerns. She felt alone and therefore gladly accepted the offer.

Despite the prevailing evidence, unfortunately accused of failing to accept the work, the prosecutor has said. It has already had a criminal case for the liaison services at Canton Vaud. She even gave birth during her time in prison.

The prosecutor has demanded a conviction for a qualified act against the Narcotics Law. In addition to the Vaud trial in 2018, it was to be sentenced to ten months in prison, and the expulsion from the country for five years.

But the defense attorney sought innocence for his client. The charges made by the prosecution are not determined with sufficient accuracy, according to him. When she first traveled to Amsterdam, she just wanted to spend a good weekend with her boyfriend, escorts albinfo.ch. The reason for the last trip with the new acquaintance lies in her personal problems. She hoped that she would leave her concerns.

If the court condemns her, it is imperative to refrain from her expulsion from Switzerland. The charge was six years ago. “Today his client may be given a good prognosis”. She is now a mother of a young child, has ended ties with her previous life, and is strongly supported by her family.

St. County Court. Gallen has found Kosovo guilty and has pronounced a prison sentence of ten months with a trial period of five years. She has given up her expulsion, broadcast albinfo.ch. It was clear to the court that the accused was aware of his drug bags and had benefited from courier service, the chairman of the court said. The trial has also taken into account the fact that 32-year-old life has stabilised over the past six years. As far as expulsion is concerned, she takes advantage of being a mother of a child who has a Swiss passport.
