Hours into the launch of Operation Relentless II, a joint operation between CTOC, the narcotics division and US law enforcement partners has resulted in the seizure of cocaine valued at over US$25 million at the Ian Fleming Airport in St Mary.
Over 1,100 pounds of cocaine were seized on Friday night during the operation.
Information is that about 7:00 pm, officers from the Narcotics Division, with support from C-TOC and US law enforcement agencies, executed an operation at the airport.
The cocaine was subsequently discovered.
Cops believe a major transnational criminal organisation is responsible for the drugs.
Deputy Commissioner in charge of the Crime and Security portfolio, Fitz Bailey reveals more information about the seizure in this video courtesy of the Jamaica Constabulary Force.
