Giovanni Polimeni, 35, today faced Melbourne Magistrates Court charged with aiding and abetting the importation of cocaine.He was charged after his Griffith home was raided earlier this month as part of the AFP's Operation Inca.The arrest follows the AFP's announcement that it had seized 4.4 tonnes of ecstasy - hidden in tomato tins - with a street value of $440 million and arrested 20 people across Australia in early morning police raids on August 8.The other 23 arrested face a range of charges including drug trafficking, drug importation and money laundering.AFP Commissioner Mick Keelty said recent seizures had prevented 14.6 tonnes of illegal drugs, with a potential street value of $3 billion, hitting Australian streets.The 14-month investigation was the largest ever undertaken by the AFP and had caused a major disruption of organised crime in Australia and overseas, he said.
Polimeni was granted bail with a $250,000 surety. He will face court again next March
