A Honduran woman has been arrested in the Colombian capital with breast implants containing 1.5 kilograms of liquid cocaine.

Colonel Diego Rosero, police commander at El Dorado international airport in Bogota, said security personnel found the size of the 22-year-old's breasts suspicious.

The suspect eventually confessed that implants with an unknown substance had been put inside her breasts during surgery in the central Colombian city of Pereira, and that she was supposed to take them to Barcelona, Spain.

The woman was taken to a hospital, where the cocaine was removed from her body.
