Cocaine cache found on Dutch drug patrol ship
2006-01-13
The Dutch coastguard found several kilos of cocaine on board one of its own ships, the Tjerk Hiddes, while it was patrolling the Caribbean for drug smugglers, the military police said yesterday.
Ooops.
A spokesman, Lieutenant Colonel Rick Hirs, said no arrests had been made. "I'm not going to speculate about how the drugs got there, or who put them there, that's all part of the investigation."

In 1999 two marines were sentenced to nine years for trying to smuggle 125 kg of cocaine on a Dutch navy plane that had returned from combating drug trafficking in the Netherlands Antilles.
