London: A swimsuit model, who was once voted one of FHM magazine`s "sexiest women in the world", has been arrested in Australia on charges of heading an international drugs ring, a media report here said.
Simone Farrow was found hiding in a cheap motel on Queensland`s Gold Coast. She will be extradited to Britain from Sydney, the Daily Mail reported. The 37-year-old Farrow - accused of trafficking drugs in bags of bath salts from Hollywood - had at least 19 aliases, and was on the run for a month. Farrow allegedly called for crystal methylamphetamine drugs to be mailed to New South Wales and Victoria hidden in parcels containing bath products. Drug buyers sent cash to Farrow through post or deposited it at National Australia Bank branches into her bank account. A member of the drug syndicate has committed suicide in a Hollywood motel, Sydney`s Sunday Telegraph revealed. IANS
