The Civil Guard have recovered almost 1.7 tons of cannabis from a half-sunken boat which was found adrift in the Strait of Gibraltar late on Tuesday. The Civil Guard officers who were sent out to assist what was thought to be a vessel in distress located the Zodiac boat 9 miles to the north of Punta Almina, Ceuta. There were no crew members on board, but they found that it was carrying a cargo of 57 bales of cannabis. The cargo’s exact weight quoted by Europa Press on Wednesday is 1.68 tons. It would have an estimated street value of 2.5 million €.
