RCMP seize 100 kilograms of cocaine at the Port of Montreal

MONTREAL | The Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) arrested two suspects on Tuesday after the discovery of nearly 100 kilograms of cocaine at the Port of Montreal in recent days.

The arrests, conducted by the Combined Forces Special Enforcement Unit, follow a drug seizure by the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA). The date of this seizure could not be specified by the RCMP.

The drug was seized from a container loaded with a load of furniture, in which the cocaine, which could come from Mexico, was concealed.

"The two arrested individuals could face charges soon," said the RCMP, without disclosing any information on the identity of the two suspects.

This is a significant amount of drugs, but a seizure of this magnitude is not a first on the side of the Port of Montreal. Last fall, the CBSA announced that it had seized more than 106 kg of cocaine concealed in a container of men's shirts found on board a ship from the Dominican Republic.
