August 22nd, a boat ran aground on the shores of the Dokloboué village. The boat carried three men and fifty boxes of cocaine. <br /><br />According to the police, two of the men, from Ghana, were killed and buried on the beach. The other man, a south-American, apparently bribed the villagers to save his life and escape. According to the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, since January 2007, more than 4 tons of cocaine have been seized in the area: that's twice more than a year ago. Indeed, West Africa is becoming a important hub in the world-wide drug traffic.
