A cargo vessel that originated in Guyana and was headed to French/Dutch island of St Martin, was searched in the waters off Trinidad on Wednesday.
In what police described as a sealed compartment, they discovered 157 packets of cocaine, weighing more than 182 kilogrammes, with a local street value of more than a quarter billion dollars.
Some of the packets carried the ‘Toyota’ logo, similar to packages on some of the cocaine found when they searched a Sports Utility vehicle in a hotel car park in Chaguaramas in May 2023, -168 packets worth more than $234 million.
