LONDON: Border Security forces at Harwich International Port, Essex, intercepted a 300kg haul of cannabis. Smugglers, Steven McDonald, 32, and John Wright, 66 as a part of network were trafficking drugs into the country on an “industrial scale”. Security forces mentioned that 28 tones of cannabis was enough to get every person in the country stoned.

For replacing drugs they used packed concealed compartments, with a dummy load for drug. An undercover police officer intercepted and drove the lorry to an address in whetstone, London. There, McDonald loaded the drugs into a waiting van as Wright kept watch. Both persons were caught and jailed by the court.
