Two men were yesterday charged separately in connection with a quantity of cocaine found in coconut milk tins in a container on a ship bound for Africa.

One of the men, a manager of a packaging plant, pleaded guilty to conspiring to traffic in an unknown amount of liquid cocaine and was sentenced to four years imprisonment. The other man, a seaman, who was reportedly caught with two tins of the substance at his home, was remanded to prison.
