Stort kokainfund om bord på Mærsk skib

Mexicanske toldere har fundet en container med 102,5 kilo kokain om bord på det danske containerskib Svendborg Maersk. Kokainen blev fundet under en ransagning den 2. juli i den mexicanske havneby Manzanillo. Det skriver Fyns Amts Avis.

Ransagningen skete efter at de mexicanske myndigheder havde modtaget et tip om, at der befandt sig narko om bord på det danske skib.

Svendborg Maersk var netop ankommet til Manzanillo fra Balboa i Panama, og havde inden da anløbet Buenaventura i Colombia.

”Vi samarbejder med de mexicanske myndigheder, der har ansvaret for sagen, men vi ønsker ikke at kommentere sagen yderligere, mens der foregår en efterforskning”, skriver Christian Kjærgaard-Winther, Senior Press Officer i Maersk, til Fyns Amts Avis.

Christian Kjærgaard-Winther understreger overfor avisen, at Maersk ikke accepterer ulovlig fragt om bord på sine skibe.

Ifølge den mexicanske avis El Universal er to mexicanere, der skulle modtage kokainen, tilbageholdt af politiet.

Svendborg Maersk sejler under dansk flag og har en kapacitet på 8160 TEU.
