LONDON (Reuters) - Britain seized over 119 metric tonnes of illegal drugs with a street value of around 3 billion pounds ($3.66 billion) in the year to March 2024, the government said on Thursday, the most since records began.
Official data covering England and Wales showed the volume of drugs seized by police and border officials rose 52% in the 12 months ending in March last year, including more than 28 tonnes of cocaine and 74 tonnes of herbal cannabis.
