While we’re on our summer break, The Front Page has been taking a look back at some of the biggest news stories and top-rated episodes from the podcast this year.
Back in April, two record drug busts within Aotearoa’s borders prompted us to take a look at why more and more drugs were passing through our borders.
In the months since, more stories have landed in the NZ Herald newsroom of record hauls, including 140 kilograms of cocaine seized at the Ports of Auckland, 25 kilograms of meth found inside a Canadian man’s suitcase, and 25 million dollars worth of cannabis seized in Auckland.
With so many drugs passing through our borders – or at least trying to – we're revisiting our chat on The Front Page with NZ Herald senior crime writer Jared Savage to find out why these busts are getting bigger.
New episodes return January 15th.
