Drugs worth $135m seized

Police and customs officials have seized 95kg of methamphetamine - by far the biggest ever bust of the drug in New Zealand.

The haul has a street value of $135m, police said. The previous biggest seizure was of 8kg.

They seized the drug, also known as P, on its way into New Zealand ports and it was expected it would be sold in the country.

Six people - two New Zealanders, a Hong Kong national and three Chinese - were arrested.

Police found a handgun, an M16 assault rifle and false passports in raids.
