Caminhoneiro é condenado por contrabando de cocaína em carga da Skims

Um tribunal britânico condenou um caminhoneiro a 13 anos e meio de prisão após ele ser flagrado contrabandeando cocaína avaliada em US$ 9,4 milhões escondida dentro de uma remessa legítima de roupas da Skims.

Jakub Jan Konkel, de 40 anos, foi parado por agentes de fronteira em um porto em Essex em setembro enquanto dirigia um caminhão transportando 28 paletes de roupas íntimas e vestuário da Skims vindos da Holanda. As autoridades descobriram 90 quilos de cocaína escondidos em um compartimento especialmente adaptado nas portas traseiras do caminhão. A remessa em si era legítima, e nem o exportador nem o importador tinham qualquer ligação com as drogas.
