A FORMER beauty queen has been arrested on charges of arms trafficking as cops hunt down her alleged drug smuggling boyfriend.
Brunette stunner Alondra Mercado Campos, 22, appears to have fallen far from grace since she was crowned Miss Charm Bolivia in 2023.

Campos regularly treats her more than 40,000 Instagram followers to revealing bikini snaps or pictures of her at VIP events with figure-hugging evening gowns.
But now her social media has got silent after being hauled into the country’s hellhole Trinidad Women’s Prison in Beni charged with arms trafficking.
Local media reports claim that police found an arsenal of over 100 weapons, including AK-47s, at the home of Miss Bolivia World 2020.
The 22-year-old’s partner, Andrés Vásquez, is currently on the run and wanted for questioning over international drug trafficking allegations.
The raid was initially carried out by the Bolivian Special Force Against Drug Trafficking who were aiming to capture Vásquez – but Campos was apprehended instead, landing her in the spotlight, BNN reports.
The Bolivian influencer will reportedly be held for 30 days in pre-trial detention until her first court appearance.
Investigators say they are waiting for the results from forensic tests on the couple’s car to produce evidence to also charge Campos for drug trafficking.
Beni Department Deputy Prosecutor Geraldo Balderas said: “The boyfriend is being investigated for trafficking in controlled substances and is a fugitive.”
They also hope that her phone which they seized will provide critical evidence.
Balederas said that videos show show Campos and her partner at a number of parties with the illegal weapons seized by police.
The investigation is ongoing.
