Moldovan-flagged vessel with ten tons of hashish detained in Spain
A Moldova-flagged freighter was intercepted in the Mediterranean 98 miles off Spain's coast, UNIAN reports.
A total of 350 packs of hashish weighing nearly 10 tonnes were discovered by customs authorities on board the ship in what appears to be a conclusion of a six-month-long joint operation by Spanish, French, Italian, and Turkish law enforcers that had been launched after Spanish tax watchdogs were tipped about the ship's illegal activities, according to the Spanish tax authority's press service.
Last year six detentions of vessels were carried out on this route, and 37 tons of hashish were seized, RIA Novosti reports.
