New Zealand's record cocaine haul - the Christchurch linkNZ Police The 35kg of cocaine seized in Auckland were the largest ever haul in New Zealand. According to police figures, about 42 kilograms of cocaine had been seized since 2010, excluding the recent record haul. Le Bas previously said only a fraction of the population reported using cocaine, which was generally used by wealthy party-goers. Police said they'd uncovered a cocaine supply route between Auckland and Christchurch and arrested several Brazilian men as part of an operation dubbed Grenoble.
