A woman alleged to have arrived at London's Heathrow Airport with more than 16st (104kg) of snails in her luggage is to due in court.
Nigerian Surat Oluyemisi Anibaba, 42, was held last Thursday after arriving from Lagos, Nigeria.

Customs officers searched Ms Anibaba and she was arrested and charged with importing prohibited foodstuffs.

She has been bailed and is due to appear before magistrates in Uxbridge later.

Customs spokesman Bob Gaiger said: "Customs' determination to crack down on the smuggling of illegal meat and foodstuffs into the UK is clearly demonstrated by our continuing commitment to this area of work.

"Everyone travelling from outside the European Union to the UK should ensure that they check the rules before bringing with them any products of animal origin."
