The grandfather of a British student who was arrested in Georgia for allegedly smuggling 14 kilos (30lbs) of cannabis into the former Soviet state has told of his fears of never seeing the 'intelligent' teenager again.
'Terrified' Bella May Culley, 18, faces being caged in an overcrowded ex-Soviet jail after being arrested on drug smuggling charges earlier this week.
The teenager took to the stand to announce that she was pregnant in a hearing yesterday at Tbilisi city court, before adding she would reserve the right to remain silent.
She will now undergo a medical examination where doctors will assess the veracity of her claims.
Bella May's grandfather William Culley, 80, sobbed as he told the Mail how distraught family members remained in limbo not knowing how the youngster came to be in Georgia saddled with drugs and suggested she had 'obviously' been taken advantage of.
