After spending more than 10 years in Indonesia, after being found guilty of bringing 4.2kg of cannabis into the country in her body board case, Schapelle Corby is reportedly preparing to move home to Australia.

Schapelle’s sister, Mercedes, has announced that the convicted drug smuggler will return to the Gold Coast ‘before August’ next year to run the family tapas bar.

“She will come and sit here and drink beer, probably,” she said.

“For now it’s just nice to wait and see what happens when it gets closer to her coming home.”

Schapelle was released from a Bali prison in 2014, since which time she has had to remain in Indonesia as part of her parole conditions.
