Imagine discovering kilos of cocaine hidden behind the walls of a refrigerated container, camouflaged as frozen berries. This gripping episode of Customs Cut Part 3 unravels the extraordinary drug bust at Sydney's Port Botany, where a routine delivery from Chile and Belgium turned into an international investigation.
We delve into how smugglers ingeniously exploited legitimate supply chains, deploying tracking devices to reclaim their illicit goods. Experience the chilling details as customs officers, sparked by cold chain sensor anomalies, unveil a sophisticated narcotics operation.
The subsequent global probe reveals ties to a Sydney-based subcontractor with links to the Colombian cartel. Learn about the logistics and security fallout across the port, and how this event redefined customs regulations in Australia.
This is more than a narrative about how drugs were seized; it’s a lesson on the vulnerabilities within our global supply systems.
