A young woman named Jade Callau found herself in a precarious situation when her light aircraft was forced to make an emergency landing in Argentina. She had been flying for 900 miles from Bolivia when the plane suddenly ran out of fuel. Jade, a former beauty queen in her hometown of San Borja, was accompanied by a 42-year-old Brazilian pilot named Carlos Costas Diaz.
Jade, who goes by Jade Chabela on social media, has gained popularity for her TikTok videos where she shares her love for dancing and makeup with her 6,000 followers. Just 10 days ago, she had posted her latest video, showcasing her skills and beauty. Her fame as a beauty queen and TV personality has also earned her a significant following.
However, her recent landing in Argentina has put Jade in the spotlight for a different reason. Upon inspection, authorities discovered that her small airplane was carrying a staggering 359kg of cocaine, with an estimated value of £17.5million. Jade and Carlos were arrested by the Entre Rios police after fleeing from the scene.
According to Nestor Roncaglia, the Security Minister of the Entre Rios province, the plane had been found in a cornfield among the low-lying islands of the Parana Delta. The couple had been travelling towards an unknown destination when they were forced to make the emergency landing. The federal judge on duty, Dr. Analía Ramponi, was immediately informed of the situation and with the help of the National Gendarmerie, the plane was searched and the drugs were found.
The estimated value of the cocaine haul is around €14million in Europe, which is equivalent to £11.75million. Mr Roncaglia also stated that the plane had most likely come from Bolivia, covering a distance of about 1,500 kilometers. However, their final destination was not Entre Rios, as the lack of fuel was the reason for their forced landing.
Bolivia is known to be one of the top cultivators of coca plants, the primary ingredient in cocaine, along with Peru and Colombia. These plants are then exported to Colombia, where the majority of the world's cocaine is produced. This case serves as a reminder of the ongoing war against drug trafficking and the importance of strict border control. As for Jade, she is currently facing serious charges and her once-promising future as a beauty queen and social media influencer is now in jeopardy.
