New Zealand officials find half ton of meth hidden in motors from Thailand
By Lucia I. Suarez Sang | Fox News
New Zealand authorities said they made a huge dent in the local drug market with the discovery of more than half a ton of methamphetamine hidden inside a shipment of electric motors from Thailand.
Customs officials seized 1,034 pounds of meth with a street value of $150 million at the Ports of Auckland from electric motors that arrived inside a shipping container in mid-August. It was the largest-ever border seizure of meth in New Zealand.
Bruce Berry, the Customs Investigations manager, told the Associated Press that they believe the meth came from a sophisticated Canadian drug cartel that is looking for a new market. He said New Zealand has proved attractive to the cartel because meth sells on the streets there for a higher price than just about anywhere else in the world.
