The story is based on a true event concerning the attempted importation of around 500kg of methamphetamine off the northwest coast of the Far North of New Zealand in 2016.
The woman controlling the attempted importation of the drugs was called Selaima Fakaosilea and was described as the niece of the late Jonah Lomu.
Jonah was a talented and much revered international Rugby player who represented New Zealand many times as an All Black.
