Woman busted smuggling lover out of prison in a suitcase

-

Love definitely didn’t set this Venezuelan woman free! Antonieta Robles Saouda, 25, was arrested after she tried to break her boyfriend out of prison by stuffing him into a hot pink suitcase and wheeling him out, according to Central European News agency.

She went to the Jose Antonio Anzoategui prison in Venezuela with her 6-yearold daughter to visit her lover, Ibrain Jose Vargas Garcia, with a plan to leave the facility as a happy family.

But her prison-break plan was foiled when she struggled to push the overstuffe­d suitcase, prompting guards at the prison to inspect the luggage.

When they unzipped it, they discovered Garcia curled up inside — contorting his long, lanky body into the bag that was also stuffed with some of his daughter’s toys.

Garcia was immediatel­y thrown back in the slammer, where he is already serving a nearly 10-year sentence for a car robbery.

Saouda was also arrested and their daughter was taken into temporary custody by social services.
