A female foreign national, who was serving a three-year sentence for drug trafficking, succumbed at the New Amsterdam Hospital on Monday after a brief illness.
The woman, Aneisha Joseph, was admitted to the hospital earlier this month and despite the efforts of doctors, she breathed her last.
Joseph was arrested in 2010, while she was an outgoing passenger at the Cheddi Jagan International Airport, Timehri, with a quantity of cocaine concealed in a tin of powdered milk.
At the time of her arrest she was travelling with her baby to the United States of America.
She subsequently pleaded guilty and was jailed for three years.
Joseph would have completed her sentence in May.
Officials of the Guyana Prison Service confirmed her death. They are now awaiting word from relatives with respect to the handing over of her body.
