The police in Thessaloniki have arrested seven people suspected of being members of a criminal gang that smuggled cocaine from Latin America. 585 kg of cocaine were seized.
The suspected leader of the gang, who had been under police surveillance, is a 50-year-old Albanian citizen, and the gang included his wife, two nieces and three others.
The gang was disbanded after the police stopped a 21-year-old man in the city and found 239 packages of cocaine weighing a total of 280 kg.
Ten minutes later, in another part of the city, a 33-year-old man was captured after trying to escape from the police. He had tried to ram a police car and crashed into a school fence. From the control in his vehicle, 238 packages of cocaine were found, with a total weight of 277 kg.
In a search at the house of the suspected leader of the group, the police found 23 more packages of cocaine, weighing 26 kg, 7,440 euros in cash, 7 mobile phones, 4 bank cards and other equipment.
Police photographs of the drug haul suggest some of the packages were labeled with Nazi symbols.
Last May, Peruvian authorities seized packages of cocaine marked with Nazi symbols and the name "Hitler" at a port in northern Peru, from where they were to be sent to Belgium.
