Officers of Bolivia's anti-drug police (Felcn) checked a bus heading to Santa Cruz at the Locotal control post in August 2026. In a luggage search, they found twelve packages in three bags. A field test was positive for marijuana.
One female passenger was apprehended. The report does not name her or state her nationality, and it does not mention charges or later proceedings.
Why it matters: The drug was found in a routine luggage search on a bus, and the report says only that she was apprehended. No charges are reported.
