Bulgarian Minister of Interior Mladen Marinov said that in Black Sea waters near Cape Shabla, police teams captured 170 kilos of cocaine bundles in waterproof wrapping, floating just below sea level. Experts said the packages were part of a scheme for delivery of cocaine in open waters. We recall that on April 7, Romanian police reported seizing about 100 kg. of pure cocaine thrown away by the waves on the Romanian Black Sea coast. The cocaine bundles found in Bulgaria are probably part of the same shipment found at the end of last month in the Danube Delta.
