Former radio host sentenced for 108 kilos of meth

Kelowna Now is reporting that "A Prince George-born woman has been sentenced to five-and-a-half years in jail for speeding away from the Canada-U.S. border with 108 kilograms of methamphetamine hidden in a vehicle trunk."

"Sukhvinder Kaur Sangha, 47, drove a rental car with Florida licence plates across the United States to the Pacific Border crossing in Surrey, BC, on Oct. 18, 2021. Rather than submit to a secondary search, Sangha fled from Canada Border Services Agency officers before she was arrested more than four kilometres from the border."

"Sangha had worked for the past 10 years as a producer and broadcaster in Punjabi-language media. She said she was told indirectly to pay $150,000 or her teenage son would be injured or killed, and chose to import drugs instead of paying."

If that really was an extortion case then that was really low. 

It should be taken into consideration in her sentence and it should be investigated. The Surrey extortion is tied to CSIS.
