Tanzanian police said Sunday they had arrested four Chinese men after finding 11 rhino horns hidden beneath their car in one of the largest seizures in the east Africa country.
The four were arrested on Friday in the southwestern district of Mbeya after they crossed into Tanzania from neighbouring Malawi, a police statement said.
“An investigation is ongoing, and the suspects will soon appear in court,” it said.
African rhinos have two horns, meaning the seizure represents the death of at least six animals.
