Tramadol is a painkiller that is legal in the UK

Tramadol is a Schedule 3 controlled drug and she could have faced up to 14 years in jail if caught with that amount in the UK.

That is true. I think the major point in her defence though is that there is no way she was taking them to Egypt to sell, because she wouldn't have made a profit. So yes she is taking illegal drugs into the country, but there is no argument to say that she was smuggling them in to deal them.
