Panama’s  National Aeronaval Service (Senan)  has seized  161  bags containing, 3,989 packets of cocaine worth over $100 million in  North America, more if they were destined for the European market.

The confiscation of the nearly four tons shipment, after a high-speed chase, in the Martina area of the Caribbean represents a major blow to drug smugglers say authorities. Five Colombian citizens threw the bags into the sea said the Senan director of Operations.
