The 10 suspects arrested for the R583 million cocaine haul along the West Coast earlier this week, appeared in the Vredenburg Magistrate s Court on Thursday.
The suspects, four of Bulgarian descent and six from Myanmar, were in the dock on charges of drug dealing with an alternative charge of illegal drug possession after police, in an elaborate operation on Monday, found 973 blocks of compressed cocaine on a shipping vessel off the coast of Saldanha.
