A local out walking along a Motril beach came across a large package of hashish, weighing 40 kilos – he contacted the police.

The Policía Local immediately sent a patrol to the beach find, which was discovered yesterday morning on Playa de Poniente.

The Policía Local handed it over to the Policía Nacional, who have begun an investigation.

As the package bears the number “41” it is safe to assume that there were at least another 40 packages of a similar weight, so we’re talking about a shipment of at least 1,600 kilos of hashish, less one package, like a forgotten suitcase on a train platform, left behind on an unsurprised beach
