MONTREAL — Quebec RCMP say they seized 62.7 kilograms of cocaine hidden in the walls of a grand piano during searches in the Lanaudière region and the Sherbrooke, Que., area.

They arrested four people on July 12 allegedly involved in a conspiracy to import and traffic the drugs, following a tip from Homeland Security Investigations, a United States law enforcement agency.

RCMP say they also seized $10,000 in cash and several electronic devices.

The four arrested are Billy Donais Cadieux, 26, of St-Félix-de-Valois; Pablo Hernandez, 52, of Baie d’Urfé; Michael Dubois, 37, of St-Denis-de-Brompton; and Juan Diego Hernandez, 28, from Laval.
