Successful Seizure of Over 5.5 Tons of Marijuana in Argentina
According to misionesonline news, Argentina's 11th Cavalry Unit successfully seized over 5.5 tons of marijuana in a major operation along the coastal region of San Ignacio.
The operation originated from a inspection operation involving a Volkswagen Amarok pickup truck that was stranded on a challenging road between the Saint Ignatius and Corpus areas. Two visibly nervous adult men inside the vehicle were found to have previous records of attempted drug trafficking and were subsequently arrested.
Subsequently, officials discovered an abandoned and unmanned truck with the vehicle key in the ignition based on recent vehicle tracks of a large vehicle.
During the investigation process, officials detected a strong smell of marijuana inside the truck and discovered 5322 rectangular marijuana packages concealed beneath wooden planks within 249 large parcels. After conducting sample tests, it was confirmed that the substance is "Cannabis Knight." The total weight of the confiscated material amounted to 5562.38 kilograms.
In addition to marijuana, officials also confiscated a reported stolen pickup truck and another prohibited truck. The two adult males who were arrested will face legal action related to drug trafficking.
