Kim Kardashian's billion-dollar shapewear empire has found itself dragged into a British cocaine trafficking case after authorities discovered £7 million worth of drugs hidden inside a lorry carrying legitimate SKIMS products. The reality star's company issued a statement, according to reps, that it had 'no knowledge whatsoever' of the smuggling plot.
The case centres on Polish lorry driver Jakub Jan Konkel, 40, who was sentenced at Chelmsford Crown Court this week to 13 and a half years in prison after admitting to transporting 90 kilograms of cocaine into the UK. Investigators said the haul had been concealed in a specially modified compartment built into the rear doors of the truck carrying 28 pallets of SKIMS clothing from the Netherlands.
