The cocaine, linked to a Mexican drug cartel, had a street value of around A$1 billion , and was equivalent to half of Australia’s estimated annual consumption, making the seizure one of the biggest that Australian police have been involved in.
Three suspected members of the “Australian arm of a drug syndicate” with 1.2 tons of fake cocaine were arrested on December 30, after allegedly making three trips out through rough seas to collect the packages. A further nine arrests were made through January 13, including a traffic stop on the Great Eastern Highway, roughly 600 kilometers east of state capital Perth, where officers found more than A$2 million in cash.
