PA Media
Hundreds of kilos of heroin worth up to £40m have been found hidden under towels and bathrobes in a shipping container.
It was one of the largest drug seizures in the UK and several suspects were arrested, police said.
Intelligence led to UK, Dutch and Belgian police tracking a container suspected of carrying a large drug shipment en route to Antwerp, according to the National Crime Agency (NCA).
A spokesman said the container was believed to have begun its sea voyage in Oman, stopping in various locations before the ship docked in Felixstowe, Suffolk, on 1 August.

Another huge bust, it seems we are reading about these more frequently like every 10 days? Came from Oman so heroin perhaps from Afghanistan or SE Asia? Somewhere like that perhaps?
