Australian police make record $104m heroin seizure

Feb 16,2020 6:44 am

Australian police have announced the seizure of the largest heroin shipment ever recorded in the country, worth around A$140 million (£76m; $104m).

Authorities said The Shipment , which weighed 450kg, included 1,290 packages of heroin with unique red branding.

The seizure was made at The Port of Melbourne - Australia 's largest Port - on September 29.

Offices said they arrested a Malaysian man after the huge haul was discovered in a container of ceramic tiles.

He was later charged with the import and attempted possession of a commercial quantity of a border-controlled drug. He could face a sentence of up to life in prison.

Testing of the substance in the packages showed it was heroin.

The Shipment originated in Malaysia and was bound for a business located in Melbourne . Several locations were later raided in the Victorian state capital.

Speaking following The Announcement , Acting Assistant Commissioner Krissy Barrett of the Australian Federal Police said The Discovery had been made thanks to close co-operation between international police forces.

" We have a strong relationship with The Royal Malaysia Police (RMP) and in particular the RMP Narcotics Criminal Investigation Department, " She Said . " We continue to work together in identifying and disrupting transnational Organised Crime syndicates that seek to harm both our nations and generate millions of dollars of profits from criminal activity. "

Commissioner Barrett added that.

" It is important to note that in addition to the arrests made, the primary outcome of this operation is the preservation of an estimated 225 lives" She Said .

In 2019, authorities made an even bigger bust, when. Around 37kg of heroin was also found in that Raid .
