According to the Australian police, the drugs were found in a ship’s container carrying ceramic tiles.

“The heroin was detected in a container shipping ceramic tiles from Malaysia to the port of Melbourne,”

“However, we are still investigating the source of the heroin. The detection found that 12,090 packages of heroin were found in the container,” said Krissy Barret, the Australian Federal Police’s Southern Commanding Commissioner.

The suspect is charged with importing and attempting to possess controlled drugs in large quantities for commercial distribution, for which the maximum penalty for the offense is life in prison.

Police have also estimated that the seizure will save 225 lives.
