Subcommissioner Carlos Asprilla, executive of the Colón Police Zone, stated that preliminary investigations indicate the container originated in Ecuador and had its final destination in Málaga, Spain. The discovery was made following intelligence, profiling, and cargo verification work, which allowed authorities to detect irregularities and proceed with the corresponding inspection. The National Police reiterates its commitment to reinforcing security in ports and maintaining joint actions to prevent international drug trafficking.
