A small boat and lorry suspected of being involved in drug trafficking were seized by Royal Gibraltar Police officers last Saturday evening. 

A statement from the RGP follows below:

At about 1830hrs, officers were on a routine patrol of Europa Point Car Park when  they came across a Spanish registered lorry that smelt strongly of fuel. 

After opening the vehicle, they discovered a RHIB (rigid-hulled inflatable boat), of the  type commonly used by those involved in drug trafficking. 

The vehicle and its contents were then seized.
