Slightly bizarre drug bust...

BOLIVIAN drug-smugglers seem to be running low on ingenious ways to hide their masses of cocaine.
Disguising the stash as flour or washing-up powder appears to be a little too old school for South American drug-runners – with the new method of choice being to wrap their blocks in Swastikas.
A van carrying 204kg of cocaine in brick-type moulds plastered with the Nazi stamp is the latest bust, as authorities attempt to stamp down on the raging drug trade.
The branding destroyed all chances of the smugglers making it safely to a farm to have the drugs cut, with Special Counter-Narcotics Police Force (Fuerza Especial de Lucha Contra el Narcotrafico – FELCN) intercepting the van in the town of Warnes.
The driver was arrested by authorities at the scene.
The anti-narcotics chief confirmed it was the first time a shipment had been discovered with this symbol. If the mules plan on having future success with such deliveries, perhaps it should be the last.

Well that’s a decoy if I’ve ever seen one.

That's what I was thinking too....I wonder what they told the driver to make him take it? Surely he knew he was going to get busted.....sacrificial lamb perhaps?

Massive decoy. A hilarious decoy, I'll give them that.

A bit controversial, do we really need to discuss drug smuggling on an automotive enthusiasts forum?
