Bolivie: de la marijuana dans un bus aux couleurs du Sao Paulo FC
A bus bearing the colors of Sao Paulo FC, which was supposed to transport the Brazilian team to Santa Cruz, Bolivia, ultimately never welcomed the players: the police discovered dozens of packages of marijuana on board.
The Paulista club was in Bolivia to face Bolivar in La Paz on Tuesday, in the first leg of the Copa Sudamericana round of 16, the South American equivalent of the Europa League.
The transport company Cosmos has denied any responsibility on the part of the club in the operation thwarted by police on Sunday.
"The Sao Paulo team did not use this bus, another one was allocated to them," she stated in a letter addressed to the club, a copy of which was obtained by AFP.
"We want to make it clear that the Bolivian drivers bear full responsibility," she added.
The vehicle, which displayed the emblems of the Brazilian club according to photos released by the police, was intercepted in Villa Tunari, a coca production area in the department of Cochabamba, in the center of the country.
Three people were arrested, according to the anti-drug police. Officers discovered 65 rectangular packages containing "a greenish substance," which, after analysis, turned out to be marijuana, according to the same source.
According to local media, the cargo, concealed in shopping bags, weighed approximately 86 kg.
