Gangs are recruiting travellers to smuggle the drug into the UK, often via other countries in a bid to avoid detection. Clara, 36, was held as she got off a Qatar Airways flight from Doha on January 20, although it's thought she travelled to Barcelona from Bangkok with stopovers in India and Qatar. The unemployed mum-of-four has been warned she faces being caged for up to four years and ordered to pay more than £750,000 in fines if convicted. Clara was remanded to a prison near the Catalan capital two days after her arrest and has been held there ever since as part of her pre-trial detention. A three-page indictment seen by The Sun states: 'The accused woman was intercepted by the Civil Guard around 9pm on January 20 at Barcelona's El Prat airport after getting off a Qatar Airways flight. 'In two suitcases she had previously checked in, police found 60 vacuum-packed packages containing a green-coloured substance that tested positive for marijuana. The substance weighed 34,074 grams. 'A subsequent analysis by the National Toxicology Institute of a 55 gram sample of the substance confirmed it as cannabis.' Public prosecutors added in the document: 'The drugs were transported by the accused with the intention of selling it to third parties on the black market where its value would have been EUROS 213,991.' No trial date has been set, but the indictment shows public prosecutors are pushing for a four-year prison sentence and huge £750,000 fine on conviction. Brit woman, 21, rotting in Dubai hellhole jail without a shower for a month after being arrested on drugs charges Clara, one of the latest in a string of young women to end up in prisons around the world after being accused of drug trafficking, has also been warned that an extra six months would be slapped on top of the potential four years in jail if she fails to pay her fines. It is not yet clear how she intends to plead and whether she will try to strike a pre-trial plea bargain deal in the hope of getting more lenient treatment. Under Spanish law, the British model can be held for up to two years in prison before she has to be bailed, but well-placed sources said they expect her to be tried later this year. A Foreign Office spokesperson said: 'We are supporting a British woman detained in Spain and are in contact with the local authorities'. Last week, Spanish police went public with the arrests of a British couple aged 33 and 34 held at Valencia airport after 33 kilos of marijuana was found in their luggage. They claimed they were tourists coming from Thailand. Bella May Culley, 18, sparked a massive international search operation in early May after she was reported missing while she was believed to be holidaying in Thailand. However, it was later revealed that the teen, from Billingham, County Durham, had been arrested 4,000 miles away on drug offences in Georgia, allegedly carrying 30 pounds (14kg) of cannabis into the ex-Soviet nation. And recently, 21-year-old Charlotte Lee May, from Coulsdon, south London, was arrested in the Sri Lankan capital Colombo after police discovered 46 kg of 'Kush' - a synthetic strain of cannabis - in her suitcase. The former flight attendant, facing up to 25 years in prison if convicted, is claiming she had 'no idea' about the drugs worth up to £1.2 million and insisted they must have been planted in her luggage without her knowledge. Yesterday, The Sun revealed how cannabis seizures have soared to record highs at UK airports — as Thai smuggling gangs attempt to dominate the British market in the illegal drug. The amount caught at Heathrow alone last year - 14.7 tons - was almost triple the 5.6 tons snared at all airports during 2023. Nearly 27 tons of cannabis were seized at British airports last year, 400 per cent up on the previous 12 months. Some 750 people were caught by specialist cops, way up on the 134 nicked the year before. Nearly two thirds were flying in from Thailand. A record 430 suspects were arrested at Heathrow, the National Crime Agency said. 4 Brit student Bella May Culley was arrested in Georgia after allegedly carrying drugs into the country from Thailand

Noble Audio Introduces New Multi-Driver Knight IEMs With An Entry-Level Price Tag
Buying a pair of In-Ear Monitors, such as the recently launched Campfire Audio Clara IEMs, will set you back $2,000. They sound great but not everyone is willing to drop that much on a pair of posh earbuds. However, if you want a high-performance pair of multi-driver IEMs but you can't or won't pay a high price tag, then the new Noble Audio Knight IEMs might be just what you've been looking for. For the past decade, Noble Audio has been building a reputation for itself by making some excellent IEMs aimed at discerning audiophiles at the top end of the market. The company has a passion for making hand-crafted IEMs with both universal and custom fits. Custom fit IEMs are molded to suit an individual's ears, while universal IEMs use ear-tips of different sizes to suit all ears. With the launch of the new Knight IEM, Noble Audio is taking aim at the growing market for entry-level market for IEMs. Plenty of people want the subtleties and sophistication of multi-driver IEMs but without the eye-watering price tag. By producing an affordable pair of multi-driver IEMs, without compromising on sound and build quality, Noble Audio hopes to bag a slice of this growing market. Historically, knights in shining armor were members of the nobility and warriors whose job it was to protecting a kingdom and its subjects. Knights were expected to embody honesty and chivalry. It's the honesty that Noble is chasing on with the Knight IEMs thanks to their carefully engineered response at a sensible price. With Noble Audio's rich signature sound , the Knight IEMs offer a premium performance at an accessible price without compromising on sound quality. Encased in an aluminum shell with a striking three-dimensional acrylic faceplate in deep purple and blue, the Knight IEMs strike a bold look. Designed to offer clarity and a rich audio performance, the Knight IEMs are fitted with a dual-magnet, dynamic 10mm driver in each earpiece. This robust driver can elevate the power of the overall audio performance while serving up a deep and controlled bass and sub-bass which creates a more immersive listening experience. Alongside the dynamic drivers, Noble Audio has selected a Sonion balanced armature driver which has exceptional clarity as well as articulate mid-range frequencies. For the treble end of the sound, Noble has opted for a Piezo super tweeter that rounds things off with detailed high frequencies that provide the focus for a stereo soundstage. The Noble Knight IEMs are priced affordably, although the company says it hasn't cut corners on quality. The combination of all three drivers enables the Knight IEMs to adapt to a wide range of musical genres and can provide the kind of audio performance that will satisfy the demands of everyone from enthusiasts, audiophiles or casual listeners looking for an audio upgrade. The Knight IEMs ship with high-quality 8-core OCC cable with OFC silver plating. The cable is coated in a PU skin-friendly material and is detachable, using 0.78-2 pin connectors with L/R markings. The cable is terminated with a balanced 4.4mm Pentaconn jack plug, although the detachable two-pin cable can be easily swapped out or upgraded with different cable and plug. The Noble Audio Knight IEMS are available to buy from and priced at $289 / £269 / €309 which is significantly less than many high-end and multi-driver IEMS.

Netflix star shares BBC dropped them from popular series
Ashley Walters, who is best known for roles in Adolescence and Top Boy, has revealed the BBC chose not to include him in a popular series Ashley Walters, Will Young and Tom Daley joined Clara Amfo and Roman Kemp on The One Show to discuss their upcoming projects. As talk turned to the shows they all appeared on, Ashley was quizzed over whether he would appear on BBC series Who Do You Think You Are? However, he shocked hosts Roman and Clara when he revealed he was approached before bosses changed their mind. Ashley revealed: "I would love to if they let me." Going on to explain his comment, he continued: "Interesting story, they approached me about doing the show and went and did about a year's worth of research and then said, 'no, we're not going to do it.'" Clara asked: "Any further feedback?" as Ashley replied: "No, they did give me the documents but I haven't read them, I haven't gone into the box yet so I don't know why. I nearly got there but I was on the cusp." "A new project for next year," Clara suggested. "Go through the archives." The revelation came as Will Young, who features of the next episode of Who Do You Think You Are? spoke about his experience. Appearing on The One Show, Will spoke about becoming emotional when he uncovered his family history. He explained: "I didn't know anything about my grandfather apart from that he died when my Dad was 15 and under questionable circumstances. "A lot of people had PTSD after the war, we didn't know, my Dad and my Aunt didn't know, that his plane went down at the beginning of the war and he was in a concentration camp for five years, that's all I knew. "But it was just wonderful - to not spoil it - go from having one grandfather who I knew growing up and now feeling like I have two. I still have this photo in my study and I just feel like I know him. "I have a tattoo of his plane and his squadron and you start finding similarities with your family - even people you didn't know. "That's what is real interesting. We had certain characteristics and it was very moving. It was terribly moving for my father and my Aunt because he was sort of portrayed as a bit of a loser and he was literally anything but a loser. My Dad rang me up in tears saying, 'You've given me a father.'"
