Published: 13:23, 11 July 2012
Seven kilos of heroin have been seized at Dover's Eastern Docks.
The drugs, with an estimated street value of £350,000, were discovered yesterday when officers stopped a British-registered lorry after it had arrived in Dover from Dunkirk.
The vehicle was scanned and a search was carried out by officers who found the heroin concealed in a load of empty meat bins.
A 41-year-old man from Bourne, Lincolnshire, has been bailed and enquiries by the Border Force continue.
