Cassie Sainsbury gets first jail visitors

The fiance of accused cocaine smuggler Cassie Sainsbury has visited her in the El Buen Pastor prison in Colombia.

Accused cocaine smuggler Cassie Sainsbury's fiance Scott Broadbridge has visited her in the El Buen Pastor prison in Colombia.

Mr Broadbridge arrived with a bag of food and a single red rose during a visit arranged by the Australian Consulate, the Nine Network reported on Tuesday,

He made no comment as he entered the jail where his 22-year-old fiancee has been detained since 5.8kg of cocaine was allegedly found hidden inside 18 headphone boxes in her suitcase at El Dorado International Airport in April.

Mr Broadbridge spent about an hour inside before Ms Sainsbury's mother and sister arrived with several bags and spent a similar length of time visiting, according to Nine footage.
