Huge coke haul in Honduras

Tegucigalpa – Police in Honduras, whose president the United States accuses of being a “co-conspirator” in drug-trafficking, unearthed 1.5 tons of cocaine buried in the ground in a small village in the country’s north.

They found some 1 450 packets of drugs in 58 sacks buried in three large holes dug with heavy machinery, a police statement said.

The drugs had apparently been brought to Francia, which is near the coast, by sea. –
