SA man to be jailed for a year for smuggling cocaine

A judge sentenced a South African man to 12 months in prison on Thursday for attempting to smuggle cocaine out of Suriname last year. Abraham Nkosi (37) from Cape Town, was arrested in December after he brought two computers to a courier company for shipment to Ireland, authorities said. Police said they found 2,3kg of cocaine hidden in the computers.
