Seven men charged with attempting to import hundreds of kilos of drugs
Seven men have been charged with major drug and tobacco importation offences following a multi-agency investigation into transnational crime syndicates. A Multi-Agency Strike Team (MAST), comprising officers from policing and government agencies, targeted "trusted insiders" in these syndicates. A 42-year-old man using a freight forwarding company in Punchbowl, in southwestern Sydney, to import more than 280kg of liquid methamphetamine from Canada was detected as part of the probe. On August 5, 2024, two men, aged 43 and 31, were allegedly observed accessing a cooler with the drugs at a location in Riverstone. Police arrested the 43-year-old man at a fast-food restaurant in Londonderry, in western Sydney. He was taken to Penrith Police Station, where he was charged with 17 drug and criminal offences. He was refused bail and appeared in Penrith Local Court on August 6, 2024. During another search warrant in Box Hill that same month, a 31-year-old man was arrested over drug offences. Police continued to investigate the 42-year-old man, who allegedly continued to use the freight forwarding company to import three separate consignments, containing more than 20 million cigarettes from the United Arab Emirates. In May 2025, MAST investigators established that the man was planning to import 50kg of cocaine in a shipping container from Panama, concealed in cement bags. It will be further alleged that the 42-year-old sought the assistance of two men, who flew in from Canada, to retrieve the cocaine from the cement bags and onward supply it to organised crime groups in NSW. On May 30, MAST investigators arrested four men in Wetherill Park. The men were taken to Fairfield Police Station, where the 42-year-old man was charged with a range of drug offences. Another 42-year-old man was charged with attempting to import a commercial quantity of border-controlled drugs and participating in a criminal group. The two Canadian nationals, aged 24 and 31, were both charged with attempting to possess a commercial quantity of an unlawful drug.
