Cairns, 35, from Gourock, Renfrewshire, was caught with nearly £500,000 of cocaine at Punta Cana Airport in 2009
A drug smuggler has tied the knot with a woman he met while serving a decade behind bars in a Caribbean jail. Paul Cairns enjoyed a traditional Scots wedding to Dominican Republic native Carmen Rosa – with his smuggling accomplice as his best man and another jailed trafficker on the guest list.
Cairns – who fathered a child while in jail – is understood to have proposed to Carmen in 2011. Fellow convicted smuggler Daniel Squires, of Greenock, who served the same sentence, was by his side at his wedding. The day after the wedding, Cairns thanked pals, posting a snap from the day. He wrote: “Me and my wife loved every minute of it.”
Top news stories today Cairns and Squires were jailed for a decade in 2010. They were linked to a gang run by William Byrne of Wemyss Bay, Renfrewshire, who was jailed that same year for four-and-a-half years after pleading guilty to being concerned in the supply of cocaine.
