Bissau, Mar 11 (AFP) Authorities in Guinea-Bissau have seized a consignment of nearly 800 kilos of cocaine, police sources said on Sunday.

It is the biggest drugs haul in the country in over a decade.

Four suspects -- two Nigerians, one Senegalese and one Bissau-Guinean -- were arrested following the seizure overnight Saturday to Sunday at the capital Bissau's northern exit.

The drugs were found in a refrigerated truck registered in Senegal. Police are probing whether army officers and high-ranking officials were involved, a source said. (AFP)
