A total of 30 tones of poisonous peanuts have disappeared from a warehouse in Bulgaria's seaside village Kamenar on February 12, Darik News reported.
Three analyses showed the nuts are poisonous if consumed and contain alpha toxins more than 60 times than the average level.
Alpha toxins cause cancer in the human body, experts said.
The peanuts were imported from Gambia in 2006 and were stored in the warehouse of the Varna Company BulPack. After a check, officials found out the whole 30 tons of the poisonous nuts were missing.
The company that owns the warehouse denied knowing anything whatsoever.
The case was sent to the local Prosecutor's Office and police are investigating the case.
