WILLEMSTAD.- If a thief steals 6 guilders, 60 guilders or 600 guilders, none of this sum will make the thief less a thief. Well, if they got 6 kilos, 60 kilos or 600 kilos in the Navy, it’s a shame. The publication of EXTRA on Monday morning informed of the seizure of 600 kilos in a container on the grounds of the Navy in Parera. The spokesperson of the Navy wasn’t amused but only because the amount we mentioned was supposedly not correct, but neither did they say how much they did catch. Many media ‘covered their eyes’ for this crime and they maintain that it was not about 600 kilos. It’s a shame that the Navy is on drugs. It is a shame that the Navy is once again involved in the shipment of drugs to the Netherlands.
The spokesman hinted that the name of the Navy is damaged when the drug found is mixed with the lost one in the police. Once again, they want to blind themselves and they try to blame the publication of the amount of drugs that would not be correct without apologizing for what is happening on their premises. The amount is not the important thing but the fact of having obtained drugs in the Navy, which is one of the strongest parts of our judicial chain. A prestigious entity!
And even worse, this time they cannot report how much drugs they found, supposedly because of the importance of the investigation. The fact is, it is not the first time that Navy personnel are involved in drug trafficking within the territory of Curaçao. We want to remind the Navy that in the same period in Doorn Holland, more than 10 bags filled with cocaine were intercepted by the Navy personnel who left the island of Saint Martin.
