Once around half the world, in that South American country that is considered a stronghold of cocaine to smuggle two kilos from the white powder to Austria: a Flachgauerin (36) in the spring of 2025.
This criminal case looks like a manuscript of films from recent days: a flat Gauer and mother of two children (36) flew to Colombia in March. When she arrived in the capital Bogota, she rode ten hours for ten hours three days after her arrival to get a prepared suitcase with two kilograms of cocaine in Cali-the third largest city of Colombia, which was reached by drug cartels. With the suitcase full of coke she wanted to fly home again – to Austria, more precisely via Frankfurt to Linz.
Madam was already on the plane
She was even on the plane when a stewardess asked her and handed a Colombian officer. “They stuck through the suitcase and then arrested me,” says the suspect on Friday in the regional court of Salzburg and admits the smuggling of drugs. The Colombian authorities released the women again a few days after the arrest – including the designation and the prohibition on arrival. “You don’t know what happiness you are to sit here and not in a Colombian prison,” the judge emphasizes.
The ex had the idea
But why did she do it? It was the plan of the ex, says the already convicted woman. “He threatened me. I was afraid of my family,” explains the accused and speaks about how “important” are already young children. 12,000 euros was promised, she says and does not want to know how many drugs were in the suitcase. And certainly not that it is cocaine. However, she chose a very different language in chats: there was 150 to 200 grams that she should get. And also from two kilos that you have to pick up. However, she never looked in the suitcase, the woman continues. “They don’t have to think that we are completely alert,” the public prosecutor replied.
Due to smuggling and trade with search poison, it was unconditional in prison for four and a half years, not legally binding.
