The police in Goiás, a Brazilian state, have arrested a Dutchman at the head of a criminal organization focused on drug trafficking and money laundering. 11 cars, 13 luxury watches and cash were confiscated.

The police persecuted the gang after a pilot disappeared at the end of last year after a possible crash in Bolivia. The police found during the investigation that he and other pilots worked for the criminal association of the Dutchman, reported local media. To escape the authorities, they flew extremely deep and took dangerous antics.

The cocaine was finally smuggled into Europe and hidden in various products. Among other things, the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium and France were the final destination.

According to the Brazilian police, the gang members did little to disguise their accumulated wealth. For example, some members once used the helicopter for ice cream in the city of Palma.
