[. . . . ] Insp. Nadeau said "a Canadian organization operating in Europe" organized the shipments of huge amounts of "highly pure" Colombian cocaine through Caribbean islands, before taking it to Spain, from where it travelled to both the United Kingdom and continental Europe.

The Mounties are working to confirm the identities of the accused, all of whom are Canadian nationals.

[. . . . ] The arrests are related to this summer's seizure of 1,500-kilograms of cocaine in a different 65-foot-yacht in the middle the Atlantic Ocean, the Globe reports.

Two men from Vancouver and another from Trinidad were arrested in that drug bust.
