TWO Dutchmen have been arrested after 2,660 kilos of hashish were seized by the Guardia Civil in Puerto Banus and Estepona.
The men face now face charges and the two boats – which were intercepted last Friday – have been impounded.
Some 150 bails of hashish weighing 1,320 kilos were found on board a boat in Puerto Banus.
And four hours later, a sniffer dog discovered a slightly larger amount stashed in the false bottom of a boat in Estepona.
The two Dutchmen, aged 31 and 41, and named only as D.W.M.D and E.L were later apprehended.
