The Customs Authority boarded two boats off Valencia province, and another off Alicante
A ton of cannabis has been recovered by the Customs Authority from a boat which was boarded off the coast of Villajoyosa on Monday. The two crew members, who are both Spanish, have been arrested and further arrests have not been ruled in the investigation which has now been taken over by the National Police.
It came on the same day that another two boats were boarded off the coast of Valencia province and their cargoes of cannabis were also seized. Diario Información indicates that each was carrying another ton of the drug. Officers suspect that all three boats could have been supplied with their cargo from a mother ship further out at sea.
There has been no confirmation as yet on the number of arrests made in Valencia.
