Lisa Ellen Stocker, a British woman, claims she was framed for smuggling cocaine into Bali, Indonesia. She and her partner, Jonathan Christopher Collyer, were arrested in February after entering Bali. Authorities discovered cocaine concealed inside Angel Delight sachets in their possession. Stocker vehemently denies all charges, insisting that someone set her up.
The couple now faces serious legal consequences if convicted, as Indonesia enforces very strict drug trafficking laws. Their trial has garnered significant media attention, both for the unusual method of concealment and Stocker’s strong claim of innocence.
Indonesian officials continue to investigate the case, but details remain limited. This incident highlights:
- The risks travelers face with drug smuggling allegations abroad
- The severity of penalties for drug-related offenses in Bali
