Britons sent home from Thai jails

Sandra Gregory, who was jailed for 25 years for trying to smuggle heroin out of Thailand, will return to Britain tomorrow to serve the rest of her sentence. Gregory, 32, was found carrying 89 grams of heroin in February 1993 as she and fellow Briton Robert Lock tried to board a flight from Bangkok to Tokyo. Mr Lock, from Cambridgeshire, was cleared last year of drug trafficking.

Gregory, from Sowerby Bridge in West Yorkshire, and three British men who were also jailed for possession of heroin - Andrew McGarrity from London, serving 52 years, Kevin Grant from Essex, serving 25 years, and Peter Heather from Staffordshire, 40 years - are all returning to this country under a transfer treaty with Thailand.
