A 26-year-old Thai national, a Thai Airways cabin crew member, has been charged with importing and possessing a marketable quantity of heroin after authorities say they found about 1 kg hidden in her tote bags at Melbourne Airport. The amount is valued at roughly A$500,000. The incident follows X-ray screening and internal bag searches during a Melbourne-bound flight. The woman is set to appear in court in September.
