Dutch customs says they have intercepted 1,008 kilos of cocaine in the port of Vlissingen. The shipment was caught on Wednesday last week, but has been kept quiet until Wednesday.

The catch is said to have been done by odor dogs that controlled a load of boxes of bananas. The coke came from a ship that had arrived from Ecuador. The batch of bananas was addressed to a company in Heerhugowaard. According to Customs, that company has nothing to do with smuggling.

Customs says that the cocaine has a value of at least 35 million euros. The drugs have been seized and destroyed. No arrests were made.
