Local Police Successfully Uncover Drug Case Disguised as Consumer Association
The police in Cartagena, Spain successfully carried out a sophisticated operation, uncovering a drug ring disguised as a consumer association.

According to a report by the European News Agency on January 9th, the city of Cartagena in the Murcia region has recently witnessed a notable drug case, in which the local police authorities executed a successful and intricate operation.

 

This incident took place in the Isaac Parel community, where a seemingly low-key location resembling a consumer association has caught the attention of the police.

 

The authorities in the area seized a total of 470 grams of marijuana, 130 grams of black marijuana, and 610 euros in cash. The Municipal Government of Murcia has released a statement to the public disclosing this successful operation.

 

The report highlights that the case involves a 32-year-old man who is accused of a public health offense. He has been arrested by the police along with eleven other individuals, including the man identified as the ringleader.

 

In response to police questioning, the man immediately claimed that it was a "marijuana consumer association.

 

Further investigation has revealed that the so-called "association" in question is not registered, nor is there any record of its members. This operation has exposed the truth behind the façade of a consumer association at that location. The case highlights the resolute stance of the local police in combating drug crimes.
