Two men captured in a joint operation by Gibraltar police and the Guardia Civil have been sentenced in court with a series of offences. In a rare instance of cross-border co-operation both forces worked together to capture a suspected drug smuggling operation. Spanish authorities requested help intercepting a suspicious vessel, 10 metre long and powered by twin 250 horsepower outboard engines, heading towards Europa Point. The Guardia Civil had challenged the high performance sports vessel off the coast of Morocco and suspected that bales of cannabis resin had been thrown overboard. A Gibraltar police vessel then intercepted the boat in British waters off Eastern Beach.
