Senegal extends probe after record drug bust

At least seven people have been arrested in Senegal since the seizure of 2,4 tonnes of South American cocaine, police said on Monday, while denying the country had become a hub for Europe-bound drugs. Police official Major Moussa Fall told a press conference that at least four foreigners had been arrested since Sunday along with three presumed local accomplices.
