Johannesburg – Government is trying to determine the identity of a woman who was arrested at an Indian airport after she claimed to be seven-months pregnant but was allegedly smuggling drugs.

“We are aware of the situation. The [South African embassy] is still working with the authorities to verify her citizenship,” International Relations spokesperson Nelson Kgwete told News24 on Thursday.

“They will provide normal consular services, including facilitating access to family members if that is the wish and access to legal representatives.”
