When New Zealand police cracked open plastic jugs of maple syrup that had arrived from Canada, they found something decidedly less sweet inside
Instead of the sticky condiment, the jugs contained around $150 million worth of methamphetamine – making it the country’s biggest ever meth bust. The shipment was intercepted in January after authorities in New Zealand, Australia, and Canada uncovered the elaborate scheme as part of an initiative dubbed “Operation Regis,” said New Zealand police in a statement Thursday. The 713 kilograms of meth had been bound for Australia, New Zealand and the surrounding Pacific region, said the statement.
The statement said a number of local arrests had also been made in Melbourne, Australia, involving people allegedly responsible for multiple drug import attempts, including the maple syrup shipment halted at the New Zealand border. The investigation was launched after Canadian authorities found a “staggering” amount of meth inside bottles of canola oil that had been on route to Australia.
