Fifteen kilograms of cocaine were seized in a joint raid by Montenegrin and Croatian police

Fifteen kilograms of cocaine were seized in a joint raid by Montenegrin and Croatian police on April 28. Two arrests were made.
Montenegrin police stated that the two arrestees, identified only as E.M. and R.M., are directors of the Esko Company, which is headquartered in the town of Rožaje. Police stated that the pair were using the company’s license to import agricultural products as a front for organising, financing and smuggling cocaine from Ecuador.
E.M and R.M. were arrested when a container, that police believe entered Montenegro through the Port of Bar, was being unloaded from a truck. The container was filled with frozen fruit pulp. Police found one kilogram of pure cocaine hidden in the offering from South America.
The other 14 kilograms were confiscated by Croatian police.
Montenegrin police stated that an intense investigation is ongoing in order to uncover the other individuals who participated in the international drug smuggling ring.
