Largest ever cocaine bust in Australia after police raid underground bunker
Largest ever cocaine bust in Australia – In a historic breakthrough for Australian law enforcement, authorities have seized the largest quantity of cocaine ever recorded in the country, amounting to 2.7 tonnes. This staggering haul, worth an estimated A$816 million, was discovered during a coordinated operation in western Sydney, marking a pivotal moment in the nation’s ongoing battle against illicit drug trafficking. The seizure took place at a Londonderry property, where police uncovered a network of underground bunkers concealed beneath false floors within three shipping containers. This operation not only shattered previous records but also exposed the intricate methods used by organized crime groups to smuggle drugs into Australia.
