A woman was discovered trying to smuggle into the United States hiding in a suitcase.
Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers foiled the smuggling attempt at the U.S.-Mexico border.
Officials released a photo this week showing the woman tucked into a ball and laying inside the luggage in the back of a vehicle.
The Thai native named por.nkamol Mongkolsermsak, had been previously deported.
She is now charged with re-entry after deportation, CBP spokesman Victor Brabble said.
She was discovered on December 30 2013, when inspectors at the border referred the driver of a Honda SUV for a secondary inspection, CBP said in a statement.
When officers inspected the vehicle, they opened up the suitcase and found the 48-year-old woman hidden underneath some clothing.
Authorities did not release the name of the 56-year-old Phoenix man who was driving the SUV.
The case has been turned over to Immigration and Customs Enforcement, CBP said.
