Police: Drug gang used race to move 800 kilos

Spanish police said Tuesday that they seized over 800 kilograms of cocaine that was hidden in a truck that infiltrated itself into the Dakar Rally in Argentina and Chile, and detained seven people.

They shipped the truck from the Spanish port of Bilbao to Argentina, where it was loaded with the drugs in false bottoms at a farm located some 60 miles from Buenos Aires during one of the stages of the race.

At the end of the Dakar Rally, held between Jan. 1 and 16, the truck was sent back to Bilbao, where it was seized by police Friday upon its arrival.
