Vigo Port Drug Bust: Suspicions Dashed, Only Fruit Found

Vigo Port Drug Bust Yields Only Fruit A recent anti-drug operation at the port of Vigo, Spain, concluded without the expected drug seizure. The Guardia Civil and customs officials spent the day searching a French container ship, the 'DOLCE FRANCE', which had arrived from Fortaleza, Brazil. Initial suspicions of drug smuggling proved unfounded; the ship's cargo consisted entirely of fruit. A spokesperson for the Guardia Civil stated, "Despite our suspicions, a thorough search revealed no narcotics." The 'DOLCE FRANCE' is a regular on the Latin America-Galicia trade route, primarily transporting fruit. The incident highlights the ongoing efforts to combat drug trafficking while emphasizing the importance of thorough investigations. The successful, albeit unexpected, outcome underscores the vigilance of authorities in maintaining the security of Spanish ports.
