Gendarmería says Escuadrón 20 'Orán' ran three procedures that day: two border patrols near Aguas Blancas recovered abandoned loads totaling 580 kg of coca leaf (340 kg and 240 kg) plus 1,500 packs of cigarettes, and a court-ordered parcel opening with GEANSA found 10 packages that field-tested positive for marijuana weighing 10.080 kg. It says ARCA Orán and the Orán federal court and prosecutor's office intervened as stated.
