Mum tried smuggling MDMA into Creamfields hidden in Kinder Eggs inside her body

A mum-of-four enjoyed a ‘Kinder Surprise Egg’ a bit too much and stashed the container filled with MDMA inside her before going to a music festival.

Sian Bullock, 35, was stopped after a sniffer dog alerted towards her as she tried to enter through the north gate at Creamfields in Cheshire.

The mum admitted to officers she had 64 MDMA tablets worth up to £630 hidden inside two Kinder Egg containers which were secreted inside her body.

But she claimed she didn’t know what the drugs were, and had bought all of them for personal use.

She plead guilty to possession with intent to supply class A drugs and was sentenced to three years.

Police Constable Lisa Green said: ‘Every year, we and the Creamfields events and security teams do our utmost to ensure that everyone attending the festival can have a safe and enjoyable time, and for the most part festivalgoers have respected the laws.

‘Bullock will have no doubt been aware of these laws and the restrictions at Creamfields and would have had ample opportunity to re-think her actions before it was too late, with amnesty bins and surrender points placed at all festival entries, but she decided to run the risk – which did not pay off.

‘As a result of her selfish actions that day, she is now behind bars and her four children will now be without their mother for a considerable period of time.

‘Anyone who, like Bullock, decides to risk bringing illegal drugs into Cheshire should seriously reconsider their choices, as we will always take swift and robust action, and they will be dealt with to the full extent of the law.’
