A police spokesman in Colombo, Prishantha Jayakody said the narcotics had a street value of 90 million rupees (780,000 dollars). In a previous major discovery, some 38 kilos of heroin were seized two years ago, he said.

The latest haul came a day after police arrested a Pakistani man at the island's only international airport as he tried to smuggle in nearly a kilo (around two pounds) of heroin on Wednesday night.

Most seizures take place at the airport, but the Police Narcotics Bureau believes that a substantial number of shipments, mostly heroin from India, land on Sri Lanka's northwestern coast before being sent to other destinations.
