In this podcast episode:
It is the second largest amount of cocaine ever discovered in Switzerland. How can it be that so much coke ends up at Nespresso? The editor Nicole Anliker asked herself this and therefore started to research.
In the podcast she tells about the Brazilian criminal organization Primeiro Comando da Capital, which is at the center of this smuggling and largely controlled the journey of the drug. How do the criminals manage to load the cocaine onto a container ship full of coffee sacks? And what went wrong in the end that the drug ended up in the hands of Nespresso employees instead of on the European market?
