Colombia may not even have qualified for this year’s World Cup but Colombian police have at least got their hands on a version of the trophy… made out of cocaine.
The replica of the World Cup trophy was seized by Colombian authorities at Bogota’s international airport. Airports anti-drug chief Colonel Jose Piedrahita said Colombian authorities found the statue during a routine security check by anti-drug agents in a mail warehouse at the airport. The 36-centimetre-high statue was painted gold.
The statue was inside a box headed for Madrid, Spain – although it’s not clear if that counts as a good or a bad omen for Spain’s chances in the tournament. Col Piedrahita said laboratory tests had confirmed the cup was made of 11 kilos of cocaine, mixed with acetone or petrol to make it mouldable.
What a great blog. I spend hours on the net reading blogs, about tons of different subjects. I have to first of all give congratulations to whoever created your theme and intermediate of all to you for writing what i can only describe as an unbelievable article. I honestly think there is a ability to writing articles that only very few posses and honestly you got it. The combining of clarifying and upper-class content is by all odds highly rarified with the astronomic amount of blogs on the net.
