Agents of the National Police have dismantled three points of sale for the supply of synthetic drugs in the north of Alicante, Valencia and Elche that were dedicated to the distribution of this type of substance in both provinces.The operation has resulted in five arrests and the seizure of a large quantity of drugs.The investigation led the National Police to the north of Alicante where a man was arrested with around 500 ecstasy pills in his possession.Next, the police work took them to an apartment located in Elche that was used as a distribution point.In the search of the house, about 5 kilos of hashish, around 1,500 ecstasy pills, almost a kilogram of liquid ecstasy, 305 grams of MDMA, as well as other amounts of cocaine, marijuana and "speed" were seized.In addition, several weapons were seized, such as a 12/70 caliber shotgun with ammunition, a taser pistol, a large machete and a brass knuckle with a knife.The subsequent investigation continued to yield results, as it led the agents to another address, this time in the province of Valencia, where the fourth and fifth involved in this operation were arrested.In this new record, 25,000 ecstasy pills, 1 kilogram of hashish and 3,420 euros in cash were seized.These two detainees used an encrypted message application to hinder police work.In turn, the police investigation has confirmed that they were part of a larger drug trafficking network with connections to other European countries and even to countries outside the European Union.The total of the drug seized by the agents in the two searches carried out could have reached a market value of more than 560,000 euros.The five detainees, four men and one woman, between 20 and 27 years of age respectively, were placed at the disposal of the Court of Instruction of the Guard of the towns of Elche and Valencia.The most readYour content will start after the adYour content will start after the ad
