Some 650g of suspected cannabis seized aboard Spanish fishing vessel |25 July 2017

Agents of the National Drugs Enforcement Agency (NDEA) from the border control (Port unit) and the dog unit mounted a search and seized approximately 650 grammes of suspected cannabis aboard a Spanish fishing vessel, the Albacora Uno, on Sunday morning.

This happened soon after the vessel docked at the Victoria Fishing Port to unload fish. The vessel’s last port of call was Antsiranana, Madagascar.

Two foreign seamen from the vessel were brought in at the NDEA station where they were interviewed, photographed and fingerprinted before being released back to the vessel.

A statement from Albacora Uno’s captain was later documented and investigation is still ongoing as a result of this seizure.
