Antwerp Port Hashish Seizure Morocco Cocaine Belgium

Belgian customs intercepted several tons of hashish from Morocco at the port of Antwerp. This unusual discovery actively relaunches investigations to unmask the recipients of this large shipment.

The hunt intensifies to identify the exact origin and reception networks of this merchandise. Revealed Wednesday by the Federal Public Service (SPF) Finance, the seizure was carried out last Thursday at quay 188. Customs officers discovered the narcotics hidden inside a container transporting calcium sulfate. While the confiscated drug is already destined for destruction, its precise tonnage has not yet been quantified by investigators.

This customs offensive stands out in a criminal environment usually dominated by white powder. The interception of hashish constitutes indeed a relatively atypical seizure for agents of the Belgian logistics platform. As the Belga agency recalls, the vast majority of narcotics discoveries made in this port area traditionally concerns cocaine flows.
