Africa, Europe, Smuggling

Spanish Police Seize Morroccan hash from Peruvian truck driver headed for Netherlands!

Sounds like the beginning of a bad joke!

Spanish police recently seized enough hashish to give half of Europe the munchies.

A massive two tons of the stuff was seized in a truck full of fruit and vegetables on the outskirts of Granada in Spain.

According to the police, the drugs had come accross the Mediterranean from Morocco. The Morocco to Spain run is quite short and has been a major entry point for drugs into Europe for the better part of half a century or longer.

The surprise in this particular bust isn’t so much the origin or the destination of the drugs, but rather the fact that the traffickers were caught with such a large amount on a single run. It raises serious issues about the actual amount of drugs that are making it past the authorities on other attempts.

This particular bust was the result of a long investigation into the operations of a certain transport company that specialised in moving goods between Morocco and Spain.
