Spanish Police make record cocaine seizure

Reuters Videos

STORY: The stash was the largest ever found in a single container in Spain, the police said in a statement. The boxes were marked with more than 30 different logos matching the different European criminal rings that were to receive the cocaine.

The police did not name the organisation or the criminal networks in Europe. The drugs were found on Aug. 23 in a refrigerated container, police added.

The criminal organisation in Ecuador had a large network to ship drugs to Spain, mainly to the ports of Algeciras and Vigo in the northwest, through an international banana trading company located in Ecuador's main banana port, Machala.
