Lisa Ellen Stocker, a British woman, has declared she was framed for smuggling cocaine concealed inside Angel Delight sachets. Lisa and her partner, Jonathan Christopher Collyer, were arrested upon entering Bali in February. Both now face serious drug trafficking allegations in the Indonesian island province known for its tough stance on drug crimes.
The couple denies all charges, insisting they had no knowledge of the drugs hidden within their luggage. Authorities discovered the cocaine during a routine inspection at the airport, leading to their immediate detention. The trial has attracted significant media attention due to the unusual method of drug concealment and the couple’s claim of innocence.
Bali’s drug laws are very strict, with penalties often including:
- Lengthy prison sentences
- Potential death penalty
Lisa is actively fighting to prove her innocence, maintaining that she was set up by others. This case highlights ongoing challenges in combating drug trafficking through increasingly creative smuggling techniques. Both defendants remain in custody as legal proceedings continue.
