WA POLICE have seized 13kg of methylamphetamine and ecstasy tablets - worth $5 million - the state's largest single drug bust.
They believe the arrest of four men [only 2 of us!] near Eucla, in the state's far south-east, may have smashed one of the state's biggest drug syndicates.The men they have arrested are described as being in the upper echelons of the drug trade.
Police launched Operation Cadiz several weeks ago and a couple of days ago moved officers into the border settlement of Eucla to stake out the Eyre Highway [this was our route], waiting for the dealers' Landcruiser [we were in a Land Rover].
When they stopped it yesterday they discovered a large metal box welded and hidden on the body of the vehicle. Inside they found 12kg of the drugs.
Officers then raided a Connolly home [no comment as we know who lives here too!] and found another 1.2kg of ecstasy and $30,000.....
