A diver and his accomplice have been arrested by agents of the Port Police and the Guardia Civil of the Puerto de la Luz and Las Palmas port in Gran Canaria, while they were trying to unload four bundles at the Los Cambulloneros dock with 77 kilos of hashish in them.
The diver collected the ballasted bales from the bottom of the dock after they had been thrown from a ship, and then moved under water by the divers to the dock, where his accomplice was waiting for him to hoist them ashore and hide them in a car to avoid customs.
The judicial authorities have decreed provisional imprisonment for the two men, and they are being further investigated for crimes against public health in an operation that remains under secrecy.
