The customs officials refused to hand over the alleged smuggler to Anti-Narcotics Force and shifted her to the customs house for interrogation.
Reports say the woman was arrested by customs after she managed to pass through the two checking counters of the ANF.
The model, however, says she did not know how the drugs found their way into her bag as she visited Pakistan just for professional engagements.
