Brazilian law enforcement agencies have arrested six drug smugglers and confiscated about 30 kilos of cocaine at the port of Santos. The drug traffickers, five Brazilians and one Argentinian national, were arrested at the terminal, attempting to board the cruise ship Costa Diadema as it was preparing for a Transatlantic cruise to Europe. During luggage inspection drugs were said to have been found in the false bottoms of five suitcases, while one man was arrested with 1,74 kilos of cocaine wrapped around his waist.

The drug bust was part of a joint operation carried out by the Federal Police together with the Customs, the Military Police and the Port Guard. The arrested were taken to the Provisional Detention Center in Sao Vicente, and will remain there at the disposal of a judge, reports G1 Globo.
