The Colombian authorities have seized this handmade narco submarine which was carrying a tonne of cocaine worth more than 26 million GBP for one of Mexico’s most dangerous cartels. The submarine was seized in a joint operation between the Colombian police and navy off the coast of the south-western department of Narino on Sunday. Three arrests were made and Saray Ramirez, spokeswoman at the national police’s anti-drug unit told Real Press “the three men are of Ecuadorian nationality and are aged 24 (two of them) and 34” but their names have not been revealed. Ms Ramirez also confirmed that the cocaine was set to be sold to the Jalisco New Generation Cartel (CJNG), one of Mexico’s most important and dangerous cartels. The anti-drug unit said in a press release obtained by Real Press that the narco submarine with 1,033 kilogrammes (2,277 lbs) of cocaine was being sent to Mexico’s Pacific coast. The submarine was seized around 47 miles from the port of Tumaco on the Colombian Pacific as it was moving at high speed.
