The cocaine was travelling a winding route from Costa Rica, through Colombia, Jamaica and the Dominican Republic inside secret compartments in a large piece of machinery, authorities said.

“The narcotics were discovered concealed inside the cargo of a marine container; this represents the largest quantity of cocaine seized from a marine shipping container in Atlantic Canada in three decades,” the RCMP said in a prepared statement.

Corporate records list Purvis as director of a heavy equipment repair and service company on Mohawk Street in Brantford. RCMP deputy commissioner Michael Duheme called the case a “great example of RCMP Federal policing’s effective joint work with its partners.” Cocaine prices vary with the purity of the drug. The cocaine in the Kompon/ Buffone case was 93 per cent pure when it arrived in Canada, was then distributed to other criminal organizations.
