Morocco has seized 3.477 tons of hashish on a rubber boat apparently bound for Europe on the Mediterranean coast, state MAP news agency reported on Wednesday.
In one of the biggest hashish hauls of the North African country, the Moroccan marine on Tuesday night intercepted the tons of hashish arranged in 128 parcels and put in an inflatable boat with three strong engines, local authorities was quoted as saying. None of the boat occupants was arrested, as they managed to flee when the marine agents raided in, the report said. Morocco is one of the world's major providers of hashish. Tons of the banned substance are seized each year mostly in northern port cities, with the bulk destined for Europe.
