Police say smuggled Moroccan olive oil found in ‘toxic goods’ containers

About 397 liters of illegally imported Moroccan olive oil in containers labeled as containing toxic and corrosive substances was found in a van headed for Barcelona, according to Spanish police. The Guardia Civil said that the oil, which appeared not to have been declared to Spanish Customs, was discovered on January 28 during border patrol vehicle inspections near a toll station on the AP-7 highway in Martorell, about 20 miles inland from Barcelona.
