NL: 65 kilos of cocaine found in plant shipment
When the container reached its destination in Stompwijk, Dutch law enforcers arrested a 48-year-old from that town and a 36-year-old man from Amsterdam.
The company where the plants were to be delivered, was searched, but employees at the company are unlikely to have anything to do with the smuggling.
The drugs have been destroyed, and the two men are still in custody, at least until next week. The investigation continues.
