Seized drugs

The Italian authorities have seized and seized over 1 ton of cocaine in the port of Savona. 

The narcotics were hidden in the submerged part of the merchant ships and were recovered by the Savona Maritime Operations Section.

The cocaine was divided into 741 packages, packaged in 26 cellophane wrappers, cleverly hidden in the boat's engine "keels", with a total weight of about one ton.

The drug is suspected to belong to the Italian-Albanian gang, since the operation that was carried out by the police authorities of Bari is a continuation of the one on January 2, when 4 Albanians were arrested, who were found with 353 kilograms of cocaine, hidden in the hotel rooms.

Also in that case the drugs had arrived at the port of Savona. After the arrest of the four, the Guardia di Finanza had learned of the arrival at port of another shipment of narcotics on a Hong Kong-flagged merchant ship that departed from the port of Santos in Brazil on December 30. That is why monitoring of the cargo, by air and sea means, was activated after it had passed Gibraltar.
