Police ecstatic after drug seizure

An Australian Federal Police officer sort out some of the 5 million ecstasy tablets seized in the ecstasy drug bust in Melbourne on April 15.
Acting on a tip-off, Melbourne police seized more than 5 million ecstasy tablets hidden inside a shipping container April 15 in what was one of the world's biggest hauls of the drug.

With an estimated street value of $192 million, the consignment, packed into cavities around boxes of ceramic tiles from Europe, was detected by X-ray machine.

Four men were arrested and, if guilty, could face life imprisonment.
