A female Hajj Pilgrim ; Binuyo Basirat Iyabo who was caught last year September with 76 wraps of cocine has been sentenced to 10 years imprisonment with hard labour by Justice B.O. Quadri of the Federal High Court Abuja.
In Quadri's statement during his judgement, he said the sentence is to serve as a deterrent to others. He also disclosed that the hard labour attached to the sentence was because of the convict's refusal to reveal the identify of her sponsors.

She agreed to the charges laid against her and said she agreed to smughle the drug for a fee of one million which she planned investing in her cosmetic business.
