Saldahna cocaine bust: Suspects in court after massive seizure
Suspects from Bulgaria and Myanmar appeared at the Vredenburg Magistrates' Court after police seized over R500 million worth of cocaine.
Ten Bulgarian and Myanmarese nationals who were arrested earlier this week following a dramatic late night operation in which a fishing boat carrying over R500 million worth of cocaine was raided appeared in court on Thursday and were formally charged with dealing in drugs, and possession of drugs as an alternative charge. 
The case was postponed until 12 March after the defence raised concerns about the ability of the court to afford the men a fair trial without registered translators present, as they don’t speak English.
