A Thai woman was arrested in Bali for smuggling drugs when she was found with almost 1,300 plastic-wrapped ecstasy pills in her stomach.
Shopawat Ueamduean, 24, was given a body search at Ngurah Rai Airport as she appeared nervous.

When officials felt her abdomen was hard, she was sent to a local hospital and 1,280 ecstasy pills were found in her stomach.

'The pills were in a number of plastic wraps which she swallowed about 90 times,' according to a customs official.
They weighed 402 grams (0.9 pounds) and were worth about 448 million rupiah (50,000 dollars, £33,000).


The woman, who said she is a dancer in Bangkok, told investigators that an Israeli man offered to pay her $656 (£424) to take the pills to Bali.
She now faces life in prison or a possible death sentence by firing squad if convicted under Indonesia's tough anti-drug laws.
