Almost 400kg of heroin has been found hidden under towels and bathrobes in a shipping container in Felixstowe.
Worth almost £40m on the streets, the haul is one of the largest ever seizures in the UK.
The drug was seized before the container was loaded back on the ship and taken to Antwerp, Belgium.
BBC reports that three people have been arrested in connection with the drug smuggling.
Two people were held on Monday when the container, which had been emptied of the drugs, was picked up by a lorry and driven to Rotterdam, Netherlands.
Simultaneously, a man from Bromsgrove, Worcestershire, was arrested.
