New Zealand authorities mentioned on Wednesday that they had recovered 3.2 tonnes of cocaine price greater than $300 million, believed to be sure for Australia and located floating at sea.
New Zealand Police mentioned in a assertion it had collected the medication from the Pacific Ocean in a joint operation with the New Zealand Customs Service and the New Zealand Defence Pressure.
A police picture confirmed the haul, apparently earlier than restoration, in a web supported on the ocean floor by floats.
No arrests have but been made.
“This is likely one of the single largest seizures of unlawful medication by authorities on this nation,” Police Commissioner Andrew Coster mentioned in a press release.
“Whereas this disrupts the syndicate’s operations, we stay vigilant given the lengths we all know these teams will go to avoid coming to legislation enforcement’s consideration.”
The seizure has a worth of NZ$500 million ($320 million), in keeping with New Zealand Customs Service Performing Controller Invoice Perry.
