I think I read elsewhere that she was heading back to Australia. Does that mean that she was busted leaving the country ? And that the Australians must have preferred to have her arrested in Cambodia ? (Supposedly they tipped off the Cambodians.)

Yes, the Australian Federal Police alerted the Cambodian authorities about her.Anchor Moy wrote: ↑Sun Jan 07, 2018 8:01 am I think I read elsewhere that she was heading back to Australia.

Is it just me, but surely only an idiot would expect that much to pass unnoticed?

After all the effort the Australians put in to get the death penalty lifted of their nationals in Indonesia they dob in an Aussie of vietnamese extraction instead of arresting her in Aus. Is that to save the cost of imprisoning her or have they got something about boat people? Good way of getting rid of immigrants, get them banged up abroadprahocalypse now wrote: ↑Sun Jan 07, 2018 8:07 amYes, the Australian Federal Police alerted the Cambodian authorities about her.Anchor Moy wrote: ↑Sun Jan 07, 2018 8:01 am I think I read elsewhere that she was heading back to Australia.

Does seem a large amount, especially if it was all in one suitcase.that genius wrote: ↑Sun Jan 07, 2018 8:09 am Is it just me, but surely only an idiot would expect that much to pass unnoticed?
Guessing that even if she did realise the h would not pass unnoticed, may have been too late to pull out or change her mind.
As prahocalypse now said the Cambodian authorities were tipped off by Australian Federal Police.
So seems like her attempt would have failed no matter what amount she was carrying.

Indeed, but she didn't know about the tip-off.
I suppose she may have been pressured, but surely the guy that pressured her can't be so damned stupid?
Or was she a diversion so someone on the same flight could carry something more valuable?

She was born around 1980, so she could have born in Australia. Nevertheless, due to her Vietnamese ethnicity she won't enjoy the celebrity status of Shcapelle Corby or Cocaine Cassie.
But yes, it is hard to understand the logic behind the AFP having her arrested in Cambodia rather than waiting for her to return to Australia where they could have also had a chance of catching the people she was bringing the stuff in for.

She could well have been a diversion indeed.
Going by programs like Banged Up Abroad, there seem to be many smuggling attempts doomed to failure from the start and invariably the mule hears later in prison that they were setup, and a diversion for others carrying.
