The seizure of 33.5 kilograms of cocaine during the last few days in the port of Durrës has returned the attention of the media and the public to the traffic of large quantities of narcotics from Latin American countries to Albania and then to Europe.
Investigative journalist Artan Hoxha also reacted to this by revealing a "secret" about the amount of cocaine that is usually found in banana crates.
According to him, in any case, so far it has been confirmed that the amount of cocaine found in the crates of bananas is 17 kilograms per crate.
Consequently, Hoxha writes, every time the missing crates appear, then we have to do the calculation "Missing crates X 17 kilograms" to extract the amount of cocaine that was brought into the country without being caught by the police.
Artan Hoxha's post:
The good news came, it came...
PRODUCT OF ECUADOR...
To be fair, how many times the load of cocaine is inside the crates of bananas, the weight is standard...
Total weight of the box 21 kg.
The weight of the "goods" among the bananas is 17 kg.
The weight of the bananas covering the "goods" is 2 kg.
The weight of the cardboard box is 2 kg.
The weight of the bananas that should be in the box is 19 kg.
During the last two years, in all the cases when the "goods" were inside crates of bananas, the weight of cocaine was precise, 17 kg for each crate.
Therefore, if the police say that in the port of Durres, X crates of bananas are missing or stolen, from MAESK containers that came from Ecuador, the true weight of the "goods" that arrived is:
X shumezim per 17 kg…
The "suppliers" in Ecuador are serious, they do not indulge in such work.
