Tonne of cocaine worth £100m found hidden in banana pulp shipment at UK port
A tonne of cocaine worth an estimated £100 million has been found concealed in a shipment of banana pulp, the Home Office said.
The illicit drugs were found during an inspection at the London Gateway depot in Essex last month, hidden in a shipping container docked at the port.
Authorities found a total of 1,060 kilograms of cocaine, thought to have been put in the cargo in Colombia and intended to arrive in Antwerp, Belgium.
