WILLEMSTAD - On Thursday morning the coast guard detected a suspicious contact near Curaçao. The Coast Guard Operation Center directly directed the helicopter to the location. The helicopter received assistance from the Cutter Jaguar and a Metal Shark patrol boat from the Coast Guard after detection of the Go-Fast at sea.
There were three men, two Colombians and a Dominican on the Go-Fast. The Go-Fast was brought to the jetty after interception by the Coast Guard Units. Here it turned out that the men transported packages with presumably drugs. After investigation it turned out to be drugs. The three men and the drug packages have been transferred to the Curaçao police for further investigation. The load of more than 1,000 kilos of cocaine has since been destroyed.
