In the biggest cocaine seizure in Mexico's history, authorities found 23 tonnes of it hidden inside containers that had been shipped from Colombia, the government said Thursday.
The cocaine, which was found in a boat docked at the Pacific port of Manzanillo, had been concealed inside two containers, one carrying soap and the other plastic floor tiles.
"This quantity is the biggest seizure of this substance in the history of this country," the Mexican government said in a statement.
Authorities were searching more containers from the same boat, which arrived from the Colombian port of Buenaventura.
It was Mexico's fourth major cocaine seizure in the last two months, bringing the total seized to 39 tonnes.
