Peru drug pair ‘in brilliant health’

Drug mules Michaella McCollum Connolly and Melissa Reid are in brilliant health in a modern well-equipped prison, an Irish priest has said.

As they await sentencing, Father Maurice Foley visited the pair last Saturday where he found them sitting under a parasol in a yard in the jail drinking coffee and making phonecalls.

“[They are] brilliant. Very, very well,” he said.
