Samuel Nwankwo, a Nigerian resident in Eastfield in Peterborough, UK, who swallowed 67 wraps of cocaine before taking a flight from Brazil to London has been jailed for four years.
He was sentenced at Isleworth Crown Court and the drugs were also ordered to be destroyed.
He had previously pleaded guilty to one count of fraudulent evasion on the importation of a prohibited Class A drug.
He had been to Brazil for five days and had no checked baggage with him. He claimed he went to visit his wife and was short on annual leave.
A body scan at the airport revealed suspicious shapes inside Nwankwo.
He was then taken to a hospital for a CT scan where dozens of concealed packages were identified inside him.
