Police detained 12 people and charged eight with drug-related crime during the Medellín operation
The National Anti-Drug Unit, in cooperation with criminal investigators from the Regional Police Directorate in Trenčín, carried out an anti-drug operation codenamed Medellín. During the operation, which took place across three regions, police detained twelve suspects, eight of whom were charged with drug-related crime. The operation was aimed at breaking up an organized group involved in trafficking narcotic and psychotropic substances across the whole of Slovakia. During the raids, police officers seized cocaine, ecstasy, and large sums of money. The Medellín operation follows on from a previous anti-drug operation from the end of last week in eastern Slovakia, in which two people from the Košice region had already been charged. According to available information, one of the group's key figures was said to be a convicted person with ties to organized crime. As part of the extensive operational deployment across multiple locations, police gradually dismantled the individual members of the criminal group and secured evidence of the drug-related activity. korzar.sme.sk ↗ teraz.sk ↗
