Subject: 'Cocaine' found off Hastings and Newhaven 'worth £80m'

Written By: Philip Eno on 05/26/21 at 3:06 am

Drugs found in packages that washed up on the south coast are thought to be South American cocaine with a street value of £80m.

Two consignments of nearly a tonne of suspected cocaine were discovered on beaches in Sussex on Monday, the National Crime Agency (NCA) said.

Samples tested positive for the Class A drug, but a full forensic examination will be carried out, the NCA added.

Police said the haul weighed 960kg - a "significant" loss to those involved.

The packages were all in waterproof bags and attached to life jackets to make them float, officers said.
