SPANISH POLICE SEIZE 10 TONNES OF COCAINE

MADRID, July 7 (Reuters) - Spanish police have seized ten tonnes of cocaine
in what is believed to be the largest ever haul in Europe, national radio
reported on Wednesday.

Customs police carried out the swoop off the Canary Islands, intercepting a
boat carrying the mammoth consignment after several months of investigations.

Media reports said two drug barons believed to be from Colombia had been
arrested but police officials were not immediately available to comment.

Spain's national radio added the police operation was still under way and
could lead to further arrests.
