Well that was a lucky find wasn't it ? Without a tip - off ?

 More likely these two arms of the state sponsored drug importation and distribution services actually had received a tip off that their drugs stash was going to be identified so hence they concocted a story about this lucky find !!!

 

Wonder where the other backpacks which they have not disclosed as finding are now  then ?

When you look at the photo, it looks like,  one for you, one for me, ohh must leave one to show what we have done.

Sometimes one get the feelings that these photo Op are the same drugs

 with different locations and police/army, to claim a successful seizure...

 

Now burn the bloody stuff , all of it , you know it makes sense.
