Quote - 86 kilograms of drugs and a large amount of processing equipment.
I would think, because of the number of drugs produced here, are for only the home market. I suspect that we are going to hear about many more busts like the above.
Yes, there is a chance that a number of chemist's working collectively could be sending a drug supply overseas.
