A SCOTS hiker has spoken out after being arrested and detained at an airport in India for carrying a GPS tracking device.
Heather Mackins celebrated Hogmanay in Delhi before she was due to head out to the mountainous region of Rishikesh for a yoga and meditation retreat.
However, when going through security at Indira Gandhi International Airport in the Indian capital on December 2, she was stopped by authorities for carrying a Garmin inReach Mini.
The adventurer claims she was eventually handed over to the police and, after being held for hours, has been told she will have to attend court.
She remains in Delhi as she awaits the outcome.
Heather told her followers in an emotional video on Instagram that she was "totally overwhelmed" and warned others not to fall victim after only just learning that the devices are illegal in India.
