Cocaine worth €5 million seized at Piraeus port

Some 119 kilos of cocaine with a street value of more than 5 million euros was found and seized from a container from Ecuador that docked at the port of Piraeus by auditors of the Independent Authority for Public Revenue following an investigation at the port. 

The container with a declared content of bananas was selected by customs inspectors from the customs authority's anti-smuggling department due to the heightened suspicions that drugs were being transported.
