The Mexican beauty queen, Laura Elena Zuniga Huizar, who was arrested shortly before Christmas on suspected connections to illegal drugs has been sentenced to 40 days into jail.
Laura Elena Zuniga Huizar, 23, who is Hispanic America Queen 2008 and was to represent Mexico in the Miss Universe 2009 pageant, is suspected of membership in a criminal organization, possessing illegal weapons and criminal violations of public health.
She was arrested in Guadalajara along with eight heavily armed men during an anti-drug raid at a checkpoint in Guadalajara, about 600 km northwest of Mexico City.
