Erling Haaland apare pe sute de pachete de cocaină confiscate în Ecuador. De ce folosesc traficanții imaginea fotbalistului

Ecuadorian police seized 469 kilograms of cocaine hidden in a truck near the Colombian border, with packages featuring footballer Erling Haaland's image. The operation, prompted by a tip-off, revealed 370 packages in a false compartment. Authorities have not explained the choice of Haaland's image, although using celebrity likenesses on drug packaging is not uncommon. The cocaine's estimated value is around $842,000 domestically, but could exceed $11 million in the U.S. and $19.6 million in Europe. Ecuador is a key logistics point for international drug trafficking, primarily linked to Colombian and Mexican criminal groups.
