SOFIA, Nov. 25 (Xinhua) -- As much as 110.7 kg of marijuana were found near the Danube Bridge "Vidin - Calafat" in a joint action of Bulgarian and Romanian customs and police officers, officials said Friday.
The illicit drug, split into 158 packets, was hidden in a secret compartment in the cab of a truck carrying refrigerators from Bulgaria to Germany, the National Customs Agency (NCA) said in a press release.
The driver, a 26-year-old Bulgarian citizen, was arrested, the NCA said.
Bulgaria, a key transit route for drugs smuggled from Asia to Europe, seized at its borders 541 kg of marijuana in 2015.
