The Narcotics Control Commission (NACOC) has arrested a 43-year-old freight forwarder in connection with the seizure of approximately 2.6 tonnes of cocaine in Valencia, Spain, in August 2026.<\/p>\n
The suspect, who operates a freight forwarding business at Community 1 in Tema, was arrested by NACOC officers at about 3 pm on Wednesday, 11 November 2026, following investigations into the shipment intercepted by Spanish authorities.<\/p>\n
In a statement issued on Thursday, November 12, NACOC said preliminary investigations had linked the suspect to the processing of customs documentation for the shipment.<\/p>\n
NACOC explained that the consignment was brought to the suspect’s company by an agent who allegedly provided the information needed to prepare and process the customs documents on behalf of the exporters.<\/p>\n
The Commission is investigating the circumstances surrounding the shipment and the roles played by individuals suspected of being involved in the operation.<\/p>\n
Following his arrest, the 43-year-old freight forwarder was taken into custody and is currently being held in NACOC’s cells to assist with ongoing investigations.<\/p>\n
The Commission also disclosed that efforts were underway to identify, locate and arrest other individuals believed to have played a role in the suspected cocaine trafficking operation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
