The article doesn’t state how they detected the diamonds and I don’t want to speculate.

What business is it of theirs is she has diamonds in her? What next arrest people with large rings? Governments get more overbearing and intrusive every day.

Being willfully ignorant in public does not honor free speech on FR.
Next time, THINK before you post.

Being willfully ignorant in public does not honor free speech on FR. Other than insulting me do you have a point, or are you just another jackboot licking government toady? Being willfully stupid and completely missing my point doesn't help your case toots.

WOW. I agree. People should have no property or valuables, except that the State allows us (or Canadians).

If you were carrying that many diamonds you would usually think of bringing paperwork to prove provenance and would declare them instead of stuffing them in your body.

I know that diamonds are a girl’s best friend, but I think this gal went a little overboard.

Diamonds have strong x-ray fluorescence so I would guess one of those “harmless” backscatter x-ray body scanners lit up like a Christmas tree.

Point being what business is it of the government if you're transporting valuables, currency, etc.? By saying you should show provenance, then you're automatically granting that the government has the right to control what you own and how much money/valuables you can carry etc.

Maybe she just didn’t want to check her luggage so she ate it instead?
To: from occupied ga
I did not miss the point. You just don’t find rough diamonds like that. They are traded through tightly controlled channels and only certain brokers would have access to such a large amount of product.
