Cocaine1 in supermarket bananas

Summary

4 July 2014

In Portugal, around 200 bags of cocaine have been found in boxes of bananas on sale in supermarkets around the country. Police say they're hoping that the discovery will help them find those involved in bringing drugs from Colombia to Europe. 

Reporter:

Alison Roberts

Report

A shopper browsing2 in the fruit section of a Portuguese3 supermarket had a bit of a shock on discovering a packet of cocaine in among the bananas.

According to police, a total of 237 kg of cocaine - parcelled into 198 different bags - has so far been discovered in boxes of bananas in supermarkets in various parts of northern Portugal.

They all came from one pallet from a shipment of bananas from Colombia, from which the smugglers apparently4 forgot to remove the drugs when ridding themselves of the fruit.

Police in Portugal, Spain and South America are now working together to trace those involved in the suspected smuggling5 ring.
