156 Million Euro’s Cocaine from Curacao seized in Germany.

An example of the enormous power wielded by illicit narcotics traffickers in the former Netherlands Antilles and especially on Curacao is the seizure of 156 million Euro’s worth of drugs by Customs officers in Hamburg Germany.  The packaging of the narcotics and the branded packages shows it’s Colombian or even Mexican origin. Once again proving my assertion that Dutch Caribbean organized crime syndicates (two of which are NLS and BVC), are increasingly operating in tandem with Colombian and Mexican cartels. Reports out of Hamburg states that :  “an internationally operating gang thought to be behind the drugs transport, is apparently involved in a battle with another criminal group”. The cocaine transport led to a kidnapping in the Netherlands and several liquidations. If indeed NLS is behind the drug shipment, then the syndicate has truly transformed itself into a bonafide, international multi-million dollar criminal syndicate.  Such wealth and power being wielded by any Caribbean gang let alone a syndicate in the former Netherlands Antilles and specifically Curacao. The vast amount of wealth of criminal syndicates in the former Netherlands Antilles, literally allows them to live “above the law”, since no police force on the islands is without their paid police operatives in the employ of criminal gangs.
