An international arrest warrant has been issued for a Colombian beauty queen and lingerie model who police believe may have run a drug trafficking operation using models and beautiful women, according to British media.

According to The Telegraph, 30-year-old Angie Sanselmente Valencia is wanted for using a squad of beautiful women as drug mules, transporting cocaine from South America to Europe.

Police said they discovered the operation when they arrested a 21-year-old woman carrying 55 kilos of cocaine at Buenos Aires' Ezeiza Airport, the newspaper said.

Valencia was crowned Colombia's Coffee Queen in 2000 and is believed to live in Argentina.
