There must have been some evidence that you we asked by your boyfriend to smuggle contraband. Whether the letter was read or they overheard a conversation on the telephone (they listen to and record every call) you were singled out as a potential problem. They cannot arrest you for something that was asked of you, that you didn't actually carry out.
