Two women, 20 and 29, were arrested while trying to board with 20 kg of cocaine at the airport JK, located in Brasília.

The destiny of both was Europe, where the drug would be sold.

The drug was separated into two bags that were shipped to Lisbon, but the two women could not embark. According to information from the Federal Police, they had an investigation on the case.

The two women, who have not had their identities revealed, are from Goiânia and told police they were just carrying the drug.

They also carried 1,500 euros, which would justify their entry into the European continent, according to research.
