People who sell or use drugs do their best not to be discovered, but the twists and turns of life are such that even chance puts them in the crosshairs of the authorities, and their secret is revealed. This is exactly what happened in Mexico City when a secret compartment was discovered in a van in which the driver was transporting cocaine.
It all happened as police from the Deputy Minister of Transit Control were conducting inspections, security and roadworks, according to weekly Proceso.
Suddenly they saw a white van drive by that was speeding, but that was not the only violation as the driver was not wearing a seatbeltfor which he violated the Mexico City traffic rules, so the agents urged him to stop.
The nervousness of the 35-year-old man, originally from the state of Nayarit, was strong and obvious.. The policemen explained to him the reason for the instant arrest and demanded documents, but when he opened the glove compartment of the truck to give them to them, he activated the button, which revealed everything.
The driver’s seat came off, exposing a compartment that did not match the unit’s original manufacture, for which he was asked to get out of it.
Making a review of the truck, we saw that the compartment was made by hand and inside it were two “partitions” made with cinnamon ribbon. When they opened them, they saw that it contained a white powder, similar in characteristics to cocaine.
Based on the foregoing, the truck driver was arrested, informed of his legal rights and presented to the appropriate representative of the government ministry, who will determine his legal status.
Mexico City security secretary Omar García Harfuch shared a video on his social media in which the element shows the interior of the truck, how the secret compartment was activated, and the contents it contained.
