Julian Ponder, 43, and Rachel Dougall, 38, are among four UK citizens held by Indonesian police accused of trying to smuggle 11lb of the drug onto Bali from Bangkok as part of an international trafficking gang. Family members in Britain have been desperately trying to check that the couple’s young daughter is safe. She is currently being looked after by Miss Dougall and Mr Ponder’s maid and gardener, who say they have not told her the truth about what has happened to her parents. The Foreign and Commonwealth Office said officials from the British Consulate in Bali have visited the girl and will continue to provide assistance. But the FCO refused to confirm whether it is planning to fly her back to relatives in the UK.
