Prison guards wondered why an inmate seemed high on drugs after each visit from his grandmother.

So they had the police search the 81-year-old woman the next time she called on her grandson. They checked her clothes, her handbag and her personal possessions without finding illegal drugs, according to newspaper reports Friday.

One narcotics officer was still not convinced and demanded that she spit out her false teeth.

She did, and 20 sleeping pills, carefully wrapped in plastic, popped out with them. The Rohypnol tablets are popular among drug abusers.
