840 kilos of hashish has been intercepted on a boat off the coast of Marbella. The drug was in 27 bales hidden between the cabin and different parts of the leisure craft. Agents from the National Police and Agencia Tributaria intercepted the craft after an investigation which started last December when a group of Spanish citizens were detected on the Costa del Sol, dedicated to bringing drugs in via the sea, using all types of boat including fishing boats and yachts. The gang transferred the drugs on the high seas and brought it to shore in different parts of the Málaga coastline, according to a statement from the National Police. At the beginning of the year the group tried to acquire a powerful boat with high top speeds from La Linea, but the illicit operation failed after the boat was stopped two days after the sale for not having a licence.
