A 46-year-old from Norfolk has been remanded in prison after being caught smuggling cannabis through Heathrow.
Keira Borrett was stopped with cases full of herbal cannabis after attempting to pass through customs at Terminal 4.
The smuggler was arrested on May 25 after arriving back in the UK from Thailand.
Borrett, of Lowestoft Road in Gorleston, appeared at Willesden Magistrates’ Court and pleaded guilty to being concerned in the fraudulent evasion of a prohibition on the importation of a class B drug.
The defendant was remanded to remain in custody due to the nature and seriousness of offence and because of the possibility of absconding.

Magistrates ordered a pre-sentence report to examine all options including immediate jail term.
Borrett will be sentenced on June 16.
In recent weeks, a string of people have been caught trying to smuggle the drug into the UK, mostly from Thailand, where cannabis is legal.
Last year 430 suspects were arrested at Heathrow Airport where 14,617kg of cannabis was seized.
