A Filipina tourist has demanded an apology from Australian officials after she was wrongly imprisoned for importing iced tea mistaken for amphetamines.

Maria Silva spent six days in Melbourne's notorious custody centre after the bungle at Melbourne Airport on Saturday, when a sniffer dog indicated she had drugs in her luggage.

The 29-year-old wedding planner told radio station 3AW today that she suffered flashbacks to her time in jail, and had developed a fear of being alone.

She said no one had apologised for her jail ordeal, despite the charge against her being dropped in Melbourne Magistrates Court yesterday.
