antwerp - Belgian Customs has one of the largest drug seizures ever done in the port of Antwerp. In a container with calcium carbonate that was intended for a company in Kontich, more than 954 kilos of heroin was hidden. The party, which has a street value of 55 million euros, came from the port of Bandar Abbas in Iran.
In the container 57 bags with 15 kilos of drugs were found to be sitting, according to the Gazet van Antwerpen. The catch was last month, but has only recently been announced.
The Antwerp prosecutor's office and the federal police are investigating the smugglers behind the transport.
