A Canadian grandmother is facing life in a hell-hole Filipino prison for allegedly trying to smuggle more than 7kg of methamphetamine wrapped in truffles into the country.
Pensioner Wendy Jane Marais, 64, flew long-haul from Mexico to Narita, Japan, where she boarded a connecting flight before arriving at Ninoy Aquino International Aiport in Manila on June 30.
The 64-year-old had appeared harmless and had to ask for a wheelchair to help her through the check-in area.
