The Civil Guard of Valença, Spain announced on October first that it had seized 450 kilograms of cocaine at the city’s port inside a container originating in Brazil. The goods had been placed in navigation with a system called “blind hook”, in which drugs and contraband are included by third parties within a completely legal charge and without the knowledge of the exporting companies. Traffickers often mark tampered containers with seals so that port officials previously hired for the crime can recuperate the narcotics.

The cargo arrived in the European country on September 17 and a routine inspection found the 15 suspicious bags showing signs of manipulation. Days of surveillance were carried out by the police to try to find the people responsible for recuperating the drug, but no one showed up at the scene. So far, no one has been arrested for the crime.
