\n A small plane stuffed with $80 million in cocaine crashed en-route to Australia \u2014 possibly because it was laden with drugs to fly, police said.<\/p>\n

The drugs were allegedly found packed on the aircraft after it crashed upon takeoff in Papua New Guinea last week, Australian network 9News<\/a> reported.<\/p>\n

Five members of a Melbourne-based crime syndicate were arrested on Monday, shortly after the plane was dispatched from the Aussie state of Queensland to nearby Papua New Guinea to collect the drugs, cops said.<\/p>\n

The craft crashed later that day between 1 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. while allegedly attempting to fly 500 kilograms of coke out of a remote air-strip<\/a> on the island nation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Australian Federal Police (AFP) alleges greed played a significant part in the [crime] syndicate\u2019s activities and cannot rule out that the weight of the cocaine had an impact on the plane\u2019s ability to take off,\u201d a police statement read.<\/p>\n

Papua New Guinea authorities discovered the downed Cessna 402C plane empty shortly after the crash. Sniffer dogs identified trace amounts of cocaine at the scene, which led cops to the contraband after a four day search.<\/p>\n

No one was found in the partially burned wreckage, according to Sky News.<\/p>\n

The pilot turned himself in to the Australian consulate in Papua New Guinea on Tuesday and was charged with immigration offenses.<\/p>\n

A truck had allegedly been waiting for the plane in Queensland, with plans to transport the drugs south.<\/p>\n

The alleged Aussie co-conspirators had been under police surveillance for two years, according to ABC News.<\/p>\n

The five men arrested in Australia \u2014 ages 31, 31, 33, 33 and 61 \u2014 have ties to the Italian mafia, police said. They face life in prison for their role in the alleged scheme.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese arrests send a clear message that PNG will not tolerate transnational crime syndicates using our nation as a transit point for illicit commodities intended for Australia,\u201d said David Manning, Papua New Guinea\u2019s police chief.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
