An attempt of a woman to fly to Dubai with a huge cash haul worth £1.9 million (AED12 million) was foiled by authorities at London’s Heathrow Airport on Saturday, Oct. 3.

The woman identified as Tara Hanlon, 30, was apprehended after the airport authorities detected that his five suitcases were all stuffed with bank notes.

It is the largest haul of cash intended to be flown in another city detective by UK border authorities, reported Reuters.


Britain’s immigration compliance minister Chris Philp said that stamping out cash smuggling was a vital step to weed out organized crime gangs.

The suspect from Leeds in northern England was temporarily sent to jail.

She has been charged with money laundering.
